How do I get the wrinkles out of a brand new vinyl tablecloth?

It came tightly folded in the package and looks terrible. It's the kind with the flannel type material on the back.How do I get the wrinkles out of a brand new vinyl tablecloth?
Use and iron on a very low heat on the flannel side. No steam. And to be extra careful, put a cloth down on it first. You just want to warm the vinyl enough to smooth it and get the wrinkles out.How do I get the wrinkles out of a brand new vinyl tablecloth?
Neither one of those suggestions worked. Vinyl Tablecloths are a pain, and not worth the trouble. I tried both suggestions, the one with the iron really doesn't work because the iron is not hot enough to take out the wrinkles, and if it is too hot, the flannel back sticks to the iron. Report Abuse

cover ir with a towel and have iron on high heat and press out the wrinkles,, or get placemats
Spary it with water on the under side and then lay it flat to dry or over a back of a couch.
You may want to try putting it through a delicate cycle in your wash machine with warm water only and after it spinning remove it quickly to lay it our across a hard surface (picnic table or plywood) working out any imperfections and allow it to fully dry.





Best to ya,
Toss it in the dryer on the lowest setting. Do not walk away and leave it but check it every 20 or thirty seconds! It will only take about a minute. It will warm up and be smooth but careful not to melt it.
