Just helped a friend de-dent her Looksha IV, previously tried boiling water, leaving in sun etc all to no avail. Ended up getting drastic with a heat gun. The dent slowly disappeared as the plastic heated up but came back once it cooled. We then reheated the plastic and left weights inside the hull (concrete block) for a week. Looking good now. > A friend of mine just bought a Necky Looksha sport > plastic kayak.
