    I don't think this works properly though. You are way more likely to get rippling if you just do this. I would not recommend this method. You need to put in the time to properly flatten a poster.

    Place in clothes dryer on tumble dry low with at least 5 dryer sheets.  The results will shock you!

    Lately I’ve been taping new posters down on my driveway with duct tape. Just leave it out there for a couple weeks, maybe a bit more or less depending on how often we’re using the car. Easy.

    I always hoped 10c would switch to larger diameter tubes. Not complaining because I know these are just show editions and it would probably increase costs but hate to see the posters rolled tight in the tubes they use. Posters flatten much easier if rolled in 3-4” tubes.
