So I ran into this problem where I left my tt bag in my car out in the texas sun, and my xushaofa 3 star seamless ball warped under pressure. I was able to restore it nearly completely by immersing it in hot hot hot water under a minute or so (not too long). After fishing it out of my hot water bug, I quickly spun it on multiple poles. My theory being hot air inside the ball will expand the malleable surface, and spinning it would distribute the internal pressure more evenly.
I wish I had taken pics for before and after. I was surprised at how well it worked, but I imagine that is because the ball was seamless. Has anyone run into similar problems? If you have warped plastic balls, perhaps this little experiment may be worth trying and report here?
