POW CLOSING DOWN - SALE ENDS 31ST DECEMBER 2017, by NYart on Nov 9, 2017 2:13:52 GMT 1, Nicely done. How did you do it?ย
Flattened it out best I could by hand, then dampened the crease lightly with distilled water and a qtip. Covered the area with a piece of plain copy paper to prevent direct contact and using just the tip of an iron preheated on low applied pressure to the crease for a few seconds. Did it 2x on each side and came out well ๐๐ป

Did you use a steam or dry iron? I could use my snowboarding one if dry after I get rid of any excess wax. No idea how to remove wax from a poster so will need to be careful!

Yepp dry, only water used was distilled to avoid minerals in normal tap water and I applied just enough to dampen it the crease with a qtip. I actually bought a new iron just for this only set me back $12 so that may be worth it over risking the wax. But then again covering the print with paper to avoid direct contact with the iron would prevent that.
If anyone wants an email with tips and pictures feel free to PM, the artist sent me some good tips before I attempted mine.

I honestly wouldn't let a waxy iron anywhere near it. Any wax that does get on the paper will be very very obvious (it will turn the paper translucent) and will be all but impossible to remove. And wax gets everywhere.
Please - just don't!

Nice work. Out of interest who did you use for your framing? Sort of ironic the lengths we go to protect a ten quid print, but well worth it I think!

I think my concern would just be using low enough heat to not melt or otherwise damage whatever produced the shiny finish. If the reverse isnโt glazed probably start with that side and see if you can produce acceptable results first. I anticipate mine to be damaged and will report back if I end up having to give it a go.

POW CLOSING DOWN - SALE ENDS 31ST DECEMBER 2017, by murdoch35 on Nov 9, 2017 13:25:10 GMT 1, Think i've been incredibly lucky my soup that arrived today with no damage. The tube was really long, over a meter and there was no tissue paper in either end allowing the print to slide around. It was wrapped in thick brown paper that did take a bashing to one side but nothing that reached the poster.
Fingers crossed everyone else that ordered on the 12th receives theirs today safe and sound.

POW CLOSING DOWN - SALE ENDS 31ST DECEMBER 2017, by hibster on Nov 9, 2017 18:19:09 GMT 1, There is something intriguing me : How a girlfriend or a niece that where lucky enough to cart one at the lottery will can give it to his guy or his uncle living in 290 km ? I thought that only were valid the same adress as mail and paiement by card ? And for the Coa - January ?! -, how it could be valid under another name ?! Is it at the name of the buyer or could it be to another one ?! Very weird Lucky enough for me my girlfriend won. Just so happens we live together and had already planned to ask her father for her hand in marriage over the upcoming Thanksgiving Holiday. good luck (& hopefully it will be a double case of congratulations)
