3 Ways to Flatten a Curled Mousepad

Place a heavy object on it Put the mousepad on a flat surface and stack books, a laptop, or a dumbbell on top. Leave it for a day or two — pressure alone fixes most curled mousepads.

Roll it the opposite way first For thick gaming pads, roll the mousepad against its curl before applying weight. This helps the material relax faster.

Use gentle heat if needed Warm the back side with a hairdryer on low or a damp warm towel for a few minutes, then flatten with weight. Skip this step unless the curl is stubborn.
