    • Glass can shatter when it experiences temperature shock. Be sure that your glass is room temperature or slightly warm before putting it in the oven, so that it doesn't go from very cold to warm too quickly.

    • Slide your record, sandwiched between the two panels of glass, into the oven.

    • Stay with your record and watch it. If you smell anything funny or hear any strange noises, remove your record from the oven.

    • Warm your record in the oven for 2 or 3 minutes.

    • Leaving your record in the oven for longer may melt your record.

Try this: Get two 1/2" x 12" x 12" polished marble floor tiles. Bathe (the tiles) in hot tap water until heated through. Place record in poly sleeve between the two tiles. Place weights on top - the more the better. Wait for tiles to cool. Repeat as necessary.

BTW - Be sure to dry the tiles after heating.

When I was a kid, I watched my Mom fix a warped record one time by putting it between the plates of glass and setting it in direct sunlight for about 10 minutes. That worked as well.

Would sheets of stainless steel work? I don't have access to glass sheets.
