How to flatten a cutting mat
1. Press the mat with an iron
Place a pressing cloth on the mat to protect the surface. Place an iron on top (I used medium heat) and press until the surface is warm to the touch.
2. Check the heat of the mat
The mat should be warm to touch, but nowhere near scorching heat.
3. Press flat with a wood plank and weights over the warped area
Make sure the weights cover a large area, larger than the warp. Because if don't you'll run the risk of just moving the curled area to another spot on the mat. Let the mat cool under pressure. Keep the weights on for a few hours to get the full effect.
4. Remove the weights and check the mat
The surface should have begun to flatten, but don't expect it to be totally flat after your first attempt.
5. Repeat the pressing sequence
Do this as many times as needed.
