but it has been proven if you put a heat gun to it,a little heat helps it dry and wrinkle a lot better.


either get jeremy to do it,or do it yourself.

Yeah that's basically what i was saying. All the cans i have seen say in the directions that heat helps the wrinkle process... Don't think i said it "needs it"
