Top Wrinkles

Post by Mark Osterman » Mon Sep 14, 2020 6:31 pm

I am getting ready to install my Classtique top. The top deck is spread out on my dining room table. I plan to do the installation out in the sun but would it be a good idea to use an electric blanket to relax these wrinkles from shipping?

Was thinking I could hang it from one end and apply steam. I have a hand held steamer for clothing.

Or just bring it to Houston.

It'll be steamed in about ten minutes. :D
