Penelope Posted April 19, 2013 Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 Putting them in hot water to soften them will help with the shape. Do you leave them inflated all the time?

Penelope Posted April 19, 2013 Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 (edited) The flexicoys that I have are over 20 years old and have the facility to inflate them via a tube in the base, but require a peg in them if I want them to remain inflated. They are just left in their defleted state all the time. You can you expanding foam as my dad has done with his, bu it does increase the bulk and doesn't allow for squasing them in the bag to fit them in. For the deformed ones, soak them in hot water, inflate and plug, allow to dry. They should go back to their original shape.

Cranfield Posted April 19, 2013 Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 I like them as decoys, but they are not user friendly. Mine got very hot in the back of the truck one day and were never the same again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
