Good evening,
I recently ordered 20 yards of Superflite medium weight fabric to recover the upper wing of a Fleet (one piece wing 28' span). Through my own fault, it shipped folded rather than on the original roll. I just unpacked it and find it has numerous soft to medium creases on about a 12" square pattern. I am using Stewart Systems and am an amateur with only a tail group in my recent covering experience, with the Stewarts process. (that was also folded but much smaller area and it came out fine)
Should I have any expectations of success to be able to iron out all of these creases when the fabric is heat shrunk on this large wing?
Thanks.
