How to Make 260 Balloons Last Longer! 🎈✨

A few weeks ago, someone asked why I was treating my 260 twisting balloons with @hifloat If you’ve ever worked with 260s or 160s, you know they deflate much faster than standard round latex balloons because the latex is thinner.

I love using twisting balloons to add details like balloon bows, balloon flowers, spirals, and pearl strands, but I often had to skip them for long-term displays—until I tested HiFloat on them! At first, I thought it was crazy, but once I saw the results, I was hooked.

I treated some @betallic (Purple Orchid) 260s with HiFloat and made a few simple  popular designs: bows, flowers, strands of bubbles/pearls, spirals, and two plain inflated balloons. One of each was treated with HiFloat, and the others were not.

These were made on 2/27—over two weeks ago—and you can clearly see the difference! 🙌

As a balloon artist and solopreneur, prepping ahead of time is crucial for large balloon installations, balloon decor setups, and high-volume events. Taking the extra step to HiFloat my 260s means I can prep in advance while ensuring my clients get long-lasting balloon designs.

Pro Tip: HiFloat even sells a special adapter to quickly treat 260s—it’s inexpensive and a total game-changer!

Have you ever tried treating your twisting balloons with HiFloat? Let me know in the comments! 👇🎈
