vinyl cover for pantographs
 
I recently bought a vinyl cover to lay on top of pantograph and it wants to curl up on the sides it is 12" wide by 12 foot long. Any suggestions would be appreciated. It is laying on my longarm table I have tried a few things but nothing has worked so far.

Try warming it slightly with a hair dryer and setting something heavy on it for a while.

When I got my long arm, I went to lowes and had them cut 4 36x12 inch pieces of plexiglass that covers my pantos. I also can mark places on them with dry erase markers then wipe them clean. Hope this helps someone.

Tape the vinyl down, eventually it I'll stay down.

If you haven't attached it to the table yet, try rolling it in the opposite way in those areas, and taping it that way for a while. Otherwise, it'll eventually lay flat, but you may have to weight it and tape it down until it does.

Oh, Sewweary, I'm gonna go get myself some plexiglass for my longer. Maybe I'll use it.
