Post subject: | Need advise on how to prebend bindings |
Hi, I did a test to prebend the extra bindings I had. I used a heat gun and the horns seems like the most tricky to do as it has the tightest curve on the whole body. Is there an indication if I should stop applying heat? |

Plastic bindings looks like, that's what I do. Doesn't take much heat! |

Just be careful if you are using titebond original, it does not take much heat to release it and you really don't want to accidentally unglue something. But plastic binding will pre bend rather easily with very little heat. |
