Reforming deformed Flex 7 IZE

[jonmcfatty]

Well I picked up a flex 7 ize for a really good price . As most of you know the bottom part deforms very easily. Well I tried heating it up with a blow dryer and that didn't work. So this is how I got it looking normal again in les than ten minutes. This may have been posted before but i couldn't find it.
Steps
1. Take the goggles out of the mask
2. Get a tea pot and fill it to the top with water
3. Turn on your burner and let it sit there until its steaming heavily out the spout
4. Next hold the deformed section a few inches from the column of steam coming from the tea pot. Keep your hand and fingures out of the way! You can get burned from steam
5. Wait until you think its hot enough and then remove it from the steam. You can begin stretching it back to a closer to normal position.
6. repeat until satisfied.

Hope that helps someone out there.

feel free to share your ways of doing it

LOL,... I never thought of using the steam,...

I do almost the same thing,.. but I sink mine in a pot of boiling water for a few seconds.

Ill have to try this one this week,...

Thanks

Sinking in boiling water should work. That's how you fit Mouthguards...

I still wear one too...but I have to disagree a bit. The original Vents Predators were the best mask ever made.

I have, however, taken a pair of IZE Frames, and attached Vents parts to them so I can at least wear them on a field.

I agree, hands down, the absolute best. I remember fogging mine in the summer once and taking tw steps forward, it actually un-fogged in seconds. It's a shame they went bankrupt.

If you're going to do it like that, here's probably the best way, have a pot of boiling water big enough to put the part in. Also have a bowl of cool water just as big nearby.

Dip in hot water, shape, dip in cool water.

Repeat as needed.

I had mine deform and I hung it from a wire hanger to pull the bent peice back out over night and it worked great.
