I've heard that the correct pordecure is to moisten the backside of the
cardbored in areas that the bends will occur with a mixture of 80% household
ammonia and 20% water, the mixure is then placed in a windex bottle and
sprayed onto the cardboard, and do not soak it just moisten it, it will
smell for a day or two untill it drys, that way it will bend easily with out
crinkling. Hope it helps Never tryed it my self
