repairing kem cards

[Hedge Henderson]

I'd steer away from ironing it, unless you're really, really careful. I have a very curly seven of clubs after trying that.

If the warp is slight, try dampening the card with a dishrag (just like you'd do when you wash them). Wipe the excess moisture off, let it dry a bit, then put it in the middle of the deck and place a heavy weight on top (6-8 encyclopedia volumes will do). In three or four days, you should have a card indistinguishable from the rest of the deck.
