It was nice out today in Michigan. 45 deg. So I thought I'd do some maintenance on one of my duct deal traps.
Added a couple 5lb bricks. They were outside in the garage so they were cold and pretty hard.
Brought them in and microwaved them one at a time for a couple mins each. Worked great. No smell.
Heating them made it easy to flatten them out to just the right size.
Pressed them in tight with the end of a 2x4.
End result -added about 1/2" of putty thickness.
