Default Correcting Warpped Control Surfaces

I pulled out a partially built kit I started on awhile ago. Everything seems true except a few of the control surfaces have a slight warp in them. Any suggestions on how to correct this?

Default RE: Correcting Warpped Control Surfaces

If they are covered with Monokote, you can heat up the side that needs to pulled into line. If they need to be covered then you can remove most minor warps as you cover it. Good Luck, Dave
