The two capas are cut so that they overlap on the rolling bench and applied together in the same motion.
Here is a video of the capas being applied to a CAO America. A barber pole cigar would be an identical process, just a wider overlap.

cool vid. I should clarify - some barberpole cigars are made using the maduro strip method. Some tapa negra cigars for example and the Carlos III. The outer strip is help on using the pectin or cigar glue. |
