It's a kind of board made from vinyl that is very difficult to get to lay flat.

What about putting bricks on it, or some very large people.

One of those steam rollers they use for roads could work, or depending on the size, you could put it in one of those large pizza ovens for about an hour.

No silly, the floor wouldn't support the weight of those steam rollers.... Now one of the pizza ovens may work!

Cast iron works better than vinyl.

I have a 30 year old vinyl board that lays flat to this day. My secret? Store it in a cardboard tube. I cut off a piece from an empty carpet roll. It works great. I simply roll it the other way when I take it out and it lays down pretty well.
But I've kept it this way from day one. 😉

A white elephant, hired for an hour, should do the trick. But you'll need a crap bucket too; in order to keep the board clean. 🙁

If it is vinyl then it should lay flat all by itself... you just lay it out and it will eventually go flat.

This thread got hijacked from the start so I guess you were never going to get sensible answers. What is a vinyl matt board, exactly?
