    Default Fixing poster folds

    Sorry I'm not really sure if this would go under off-topic or not >< I guess move it if it needs but I was wondering if there is any way to remove the creases in a poster after it's been folded up so it gets all nice and flat. Does it just happen over time of being stretched out or is there something your supposed to do?

    You can't get rid of the white lines (that's just plain ol' damage, sorry) but to flatten them, if putting the poster between/beneath some heavy books and boxes doesn't do the trick, you can try putting the poster on a stiff piece of cardboard, covering it with a dry towel and ironing it. Be careful.

    have it professionally mounted on posterboard or foamcore for best results. It won't be perfect, but thats as good as it gets.
