Currently I have two prints sitting downstairs on my table ("The Thing" variant by Jock and "A Nightmare on Elm Street" by Graham Erwin) which have been sitting out slightly rolled to avoid pressure from the tubes.
My question: is the next step to weigh down the corners (either with the white tube ends or some sort of glass) and let it sit for a few days?
Honestly I'm super paranoid about running these prints. I'm not the type to get upset over a tiny mark or anything, as I never plan on selling these, but I don't want any creases or nicked edges like with some older posters I put on my wall from the cinema.
Also, first time post!

yes, it's possible to get it completely flat but a small curve at the top and bottom isn't a big deal since it's still easily to frame
