jtleafs33 1 Report post Posted July 3, 2014 Just a quick question, can I have TotalOne NXG's punched out? Do I need to heat the area first (I want to punch out the inner ball of the foot, right behind the toe cap)? I really like my repair guy but he would attempt to punch out wooden shoes if the customer said to, so I'd like a bit of advice beforehand. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vet88 674 Report post Posted July 3, 2014 Yes, you can get those skates punched out. Heat is optional and it depends on how long you have for the job to be done. Spot heating helps to get a lot of movement in the boot quickly. If you have days to spare, adjusting the clamps by a small amount each day places less stress on the boot overall (this from a guy who used to work in pro shop in Canada looking after skates for nhl players).
