Very nice job correcting that, but I can't help but feel the company should not have sold it in the first place. |

Agreed! I've used that method with 1/700 scale resin models (tie string at bow / stern to lift) but never on a twist that bad. I would have sent photo and asked for a replacement. |

How hot was the water? I have to bend a resin building I bought from a retailer and I don't want to get the water too hot and cause more damage. |

The water was not boiling but nearly. Sorry didn't measure the temperature. |
