The majority of the folds and creases will probably work out of it, but some=
 may not.  I dod one month ago that had sat boxed for 6 months or so and it h=
ad a few small puckers from the fold that just wouldn't go away on install. =
  Heat gun helped, but be careful of melting the vinyl.     =20

Everyone of the tops I have installed over the years (8-10 or more) had crea=
ses coming out of the box.  Who knows how long Robbins had it on the shelf b=
efore it was sent to me. =20
