How to flatten out bends in cards?

[Ciaran Naylor]

I have a deck of blue seal long flap rider backs, but two of the cards have a weird dent/bend in them. Anyone know a way to fix this?

Hey Ciaran,

Do you by any chance have a card clip? If not, send me a PM and I’ll send you a hidden link to a very cool one we plan to sell 🙂

If you already do, faro the cards face to face or back to face turning over 26 so they face each other. Put them in the box and in a clip and let them sit for a while.

This won’t fix a deck 100%, but it will at least flatten them out.

If possible, add 1/2/3/4 cards when done at the front and back of the deck so the clip is extra firm, if that makes sense 🙂

Let me know if this worked!

Cheers,
Aron

It didn’t work unfortunately 😓

The bend is in the very edge, I can take a picture tonight and post it up so you see what I mean.

🙁

Please do! Did you add extra cards as well? Good card clip?

Cheers,

Hi @ciarannaylor,

I personally used a card presser to flatten my bend cards. I do not put it with the tuck box though (photo attached). Just square up the cards as evenly as possible. A night or two in it will flatten even the edges!
The only issue i have with the acrylic card presser is that the paint of the card will stick onto the acrylic. So i think it will be worthwhile to invest in those high quality metal card presser!
