To make the job of working with new coils of nylon line you can just throw them in an oven at the lowest setting(170-200 F / 76-93 C) for about 3-5 minutes.

Just leave the nylon coils ziptied together and place on a baking sheet or something similiar. Remove from oven and clip the zipties. The coil will unwind and straighten out nicely.

Good tip!
Will it harden up again like before or stay
flexable?

The rigidity of the line varies with temperature. A little more flexible when warm and stiffer when cool. This is why 'any' line starts to drop in pressure rating as temperatures increase, the line becomes less stable.
