print ironing, by Studiocromie on Apr 23, 2010 15:34:16 GMT 1, have you tried to let it be inside for a coupld of days?
when i started printing the prints were getting very weird with water based inks, then i was just leaving em on a table and they were flattering by themselves
give it some time, maybe it gets fixed
no?

this was a print that was damaged in the post... it has a few creases that wont go away even after being flattened with weights
for half the cost of restoration i could just buy a new one... if anything i just want to try this ironing thing out to see if it really works or is just an internet hoax
