Thank you for the tip. Just to get an idea, I tested one suspicious looking lead, and you are right on the money. It snapped right at the insulation after only two bends. I think I will go ahead a redo all of the 'iffy' ones, snipping the wire, and stripping out some 'fresh' wire for the lead dress.
