Warped Canvas Panel/Board

[troyveluz]

A customer brought in 2 oil paintings on canvas panel (18x14), painted 1967 & 68.
One of them is warped and the customer wants to know is there is a way make the canvas panel flat again.
Suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Troy

Yes. Put it in a frame.

Jerry,
The warp canvas panel was brought in already framed. It warped while it was inside the frame. The customer want it re-framed. I don't think putting it inside another frame will fix the problem. Thanks for he suggestion though.

Glue it to a backing board, like 3/8 plywood. Of course you would want to get the customer to sign off on this wretched practice.

Is it warped out the front, or warp out the back of the frame?
