Question
My banner arrived with creases and wrinkles. How can I remove them?
Answer
Banners ship rolled to protect them, so light creases or wrinkles from storage are normal and usually relax on their own with a little warmth. Two easy methods take care of most of them.
- Sunlight: unroll the banner and lay it flat in direct sun for a few hours. The heat gently relaxes the vinyl and lets the wrinkles settle out.
- Steamer: use a refillable clothing steamer and pass it over the banner the same way you would steam a garment, keeping it moving so you do not overheat one spot.
| Method | What you need | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Sun relaxing | Flat outdoor space, a few hours | Best on a warm, dry day |
| Steaming | Clothing steamer with water tank | Keep the head moving |
Hang the banner right after treating it so it finishes settling flat, and avoid pressing a hot iron directly on the surface.
