Silicone how can you shrink it?

Answer 1

well i said before if u put the case in a micro wave for 13 seconds at a time and check it each time, it should make the case a bit stiffer and help in gripping the edges, but out on high and test first, i mean just try 5 seconds first then check case then keep ading, but make sure its not hot when u check the case cuz the heat will make it feel soft, so let it cool for about 3o seconds then feel the case, it should help. this is only for silicone cases

Sorry, but for home user, forget it.

I had a silicone tablet case I wanted to shrink, it was just too lose.

I tried, without success:

1) Boiling it

2) Heating it with hair dryer

3) Applying direct heat with propane torch

4) Microwaving it

5) Baking it at 500F to the point of smoke

None of it worked, the case remained EXACTLY the same size. It even looks undamaged, which is amazing considering I really abused it.

So, I say forget it, stop wasting your time and buy a case that fits.

Remember, we are talking about high quality SILICONE cases here, not TPU or some other mix. I have heard that TPU cases CAN be shrunk. Do your research and make sure you know what material your case is. Not all soft cases are "silicone".
