Can I put a steam iron on this material? Will that ruin it? Will it help straighten it out?

I don't think I would try the steam iron. Once I pulled it tight on the frame I built all the wrinkles came out.

I wouldn't reccomend it. If you do, do it on the back, in coated side and test it on a corner to see. Stretching it out worked very well and I do t think there are really any visible creases in mine.

Yes, it will get wrinkled by nature of folding it up. It is also a thinner material which lends itself to wrinkle. I only used the black backdrop and there were definite wrinkles. I recommend steaming.

Haven't tried ironing but maybe you can steam them out if you have a steam machine or try dampening it putting it in the dryer for a few minutes

Not sure, Gary. I expect you could try to iron it on a moderate setting. I have had it for 6 months and it makes me happy every day!

Yes ,but u can put something that has a little weight to it on top and it will straighten right out in no time at all!!!

Mine was noit creased but I think if you lay it flat in the sun it may flatten out. Or, you could try a warm iron but iron on the fabric side. Be carefull. I sure hope this works for you.

The instructions indicate that you should not use it like an iron. The garment / fabric is supposed to hang from a hanger and you pull the fabric toward you and steam it. I'm assuming that you want to use it on upholstered furniture. If so, I think you can, but the handle will probably leak. The one negative about this steamer is that the hose is short for doing drapes. I purchased the longest hose they sell and I had to sit the device on a table to steam my drapes at the top. This advice was actually given to me by their customer service. If you're going to hang the upholstery, steaming a large piece of fabric won't be easy. For most people, there's no place to hang a large piece of fabric on each end.

This product will make the hem to stiff and crinkly. I would just sew the hem by machine or if you cannot do that just buy some hem tape at the fabric store.

Yes u can color and flat iron it but I recommend to iron it on low heat cause it can still get damaged

I had other bad experiences with this iron. Steam left big water spots on silk ruining a lovely scarf After using it once I gave it away. Didn't use it long enough to have trouble with the filaments. Sorry. Marci

I have not tried "hot fix rhinestones" myself but understand that using a unit like this is preferable to a standard iron, because it reaches higher temperatures. I have not tried vinyl but would be careful, the vinyl may melt at higher temperatures. You may want to experiment, perhaps protecting the vinyl with a layer of cloth and at a lower temperature to start. For regular ironing of clothes it is a very nice steam press.

Actually I straightened my curly one just fine, I set my flat iron at 325 degrees and as long as you just glide it over the strands and don't hold it in a single place it should be fine.

I actually just got mine yesterday and hadn't tried to straighten it since wigs like this one can damage easily from heat and it has a tangling issue like I've mentioned in my review I did, and it had almost taken damage just from that little bit of tangling before adding hair product to tame it (Bed Head Manipulator). So if you buy it I wouldn't try to use a hair straightener on it so the wig will last longer and you get full use out of it.

I think so. More steam holes and the steam generator really force the steam. Best iron I have ever used, I require far less spray starch, even on 100 percent cotton.

Yes, it has worked well for me. It is made very well and is very thick. I use the heaviest steam setting and typically iron for an hour or more and this has never been an issue for me.

I never ironed it, the humidity fixed the creases but I'm sure you could on low heat

I would suggest putting it someplace warm so that the wrinkles will smooth out. Or you might be able to remove them with a blow dryer on a low setting. It just needs some heat.
