It works much better if you iron it but takes a long time to do  ...   Haha  ...  Not true!!! If you clamp one end, hold it out with one hand and walk along waving a hot air gun over it  ...  it magically smooths out and looks almost like new. Then it is really easy to roll up and handle for reuse. It requires care that you don't overheat it or the edges curl  ...  but it is a quick and easy job to do and well worth it. One headache is that it picks up lots of dust and rubbish via static  ...  so I find I also just pull it through a damp rag to wipe off all the rubbish before I wind it up  ...  and it then also feels nice and clean. Otherwise you can see all sorts of dust and lint wrapped up with the new transformer and that just looks wrong.
