Heat Shrinked!! (6)

I have used cling film on my sub but not a hairdrier! will have to experiment!!

"Dance as though no one is watching you, Love as though you have never been hurt before, Sing as though no one can hear you, Live as though heaven is on earth."

I'd be very, very cautious as the degree of shrinkage can't really be controlled that accurately. It would become difficult to be cut out of the shrinkwrap quickly in an emergency as there is likely to be very little "give" to slip EMT scissors into the wrap.

I can appreciate the feeling of confinement and pressure might be desired, but if shrunk around the ribcage + stomach, breathing would be severely restricted.

It would also cut circulation to the areas applied to very efficently.

Just to add, and from my own very limited experience, in industry, the temprerature needed to shrink the wrap further is generally VERY high.

I know domestic food wrap is a different animal, but it may be that a hairdryer is not hot enough.

Having said that, I don't see what harm experimenting would do, as long as it is with the hairdryer and not the heat gun.

Good luck . . .shall we put the call in for the ambulance now??

Ah yes, of course.

Hmmm. Have you experimented to see if it can be shrunk with a hair dryer? I would try first on some fruit or something just to see if it shrinks at all, and then if it did on my left arm, to see how it feels on a small-ish area.

It may be that to get enough heat even from a hair dryer you'd have to hold it over the same patch of skin for a long time, which I think would burn in an unpleasant way.

I would probably also experiment in the kitchen so I could run my arm under the cold tap if necessary!

Have fun :o)
