I can appreciate not heating a plastic coil former as it will melt, deform and bind the slug. The coil former I was referring to is the brown phenolic type.

In this Zenith, the convergence coils were of the plastic variety and each had gone brittle and deformed. I called Moyers and they provided me the first two replacements wound on a phenolic core. The third (on the far right) I rewound on a Zenith plastic coil former.
