The Duplon on my rod handles have become quite flat.They are free spirit high s ive's. I was thinking of steaming them to try and bring some life back into them,but am unsure of the proper procedure ,if there is one,any help in the matter would be most grateful,thanks 👍

Just hold them over a steaming kettle, approx 12inches or so and rotate and keep the rod moving whilst doing this, avoid the reel seat and collars if you can

A hairdryer or heat gun works well also. keep the heat moving.
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
