Use a hair dryer!
I used to wash my ety foamies in very hot water then blast them with a hair
dryer to dry and re inflate them.
Works a treat.
But, they never return to 'as new' condition, they appear softer and slightly more
springy.
I would guess during washing and or prolonged usage some of the rubber additives
are removed and the properties change.
They don't appear to retain or regain their original properties for any length
of time after a certain amount of use or a clean.
To my ears the condition of the foamies makes a very significant difference
to the performance of the ER4, so new = best sound.
I now buy the ety foamies in bulk and just accept it as part of their overhead.
How long they last depends on mow many insertion/removal cycles they go through.
Generally I get anywhere form 2 days to two weeks depending on the above.
Needing to keep a stock of disposable [and somewhat expensive] plugs handy
is somewhat annoying but I have yet to find a better sounding solution as for
as the Etys are concerned.
