I left mine in the car in summer, I put it on my south facing driveway placed a bucket of water for weight and it corrected itself. Perhaps it depends on how severe the warp is. Mine was a June Taylor mat

I've read somewhere that heat helps. The suggestion was to lay it on a flat surface in the sun and wait. No idea though if that works...

So I developed a "case" to carry and to store mine. Jan in VA |
Will be making one of those carry case things.

Thanks everyone for all the suggestions. Will try as many as possible. If it doesn't flattened, I will cut it up and make a small portable mat on one side and a soft board on the opposite side that can used when traveling. I think most of you know what I am talking about. Thanks again.

I warmed mine with heating gun and laid heavy weight on it til it cooled , worked like a charm , good luck.

Jan, I kept the pkg my cutting mat came in, and attached flannel to the back of the case for a small and portable design board!
