How to remove wrinkles from backdrops

Remove wrinkles from your backdrops without ironing them. amzn.to/2RJbtGm This quick, easy and cheap tool will make your video or photography backdrops look amazing in just minutes.
A crisp backdrop can add a level of professionalism to your videos - but not if it's wrinkled. I tried ironing my muslin backdrops, but they are 6 feet x 9 feet and it's tough to iron something that big on my ironing board.
I found this video on how to remove wrinkles with a spray of warm water, but I just ended up with a wet wrinkled backdrop. Give it a try, it may work for you! • Quickly removing wrink...
I purchased a hand travel steamer on Amazon and it is quick and easy! Just hold the steamer against the hanging fabric and run it up and down. One note: this does not work if you have vinyl backdrops - this is for cloth / muslin. And you can also use this to fix up your shirt before you shoot :-)
Check it out on Amazon amzn.to/2RJbtGm - your purchase helps support my video making habit.
And I've got a video (with links) covering all the equipment in my home studio www.BrightonWe...

Brighton West Video Actually I just checked, mine isn't the exact same one but it's very similar. The brand is called Steamfast and it's white. It worked very well on my muslin green screen.

How to remove the wrinkles Non-woven Fabric Background ?HELP

Thank you very much! I was looking for help with the exact same backdrop! Ordering a steamer now. Thank you for the demo, appreciate it!

@@brightonwestvideo does this work with non woven backdrop?

[@fixitrod4969]

Any tips for polypropylene backdrops. They are made out of a recycled material evidently. I've never seen this type. Looks like muslin but it partially repels water. I tried to hose them down while hanging and no luck. Haven't tried steam but also wasn't sure if steam could damage them?

[@KeithMarrocco]

Nice. We've got a steamer we use for our backdrops. However, I'm still looking for a way to stretch my green screen back out after I accidentally shrank a couple of inches it by putting it through the washer/dryer...

thanks for this hack! this works

I have a steamer and it works great on my cloth backdrops. How do you remove them from Vinyl?

[@brightonwestvideo]

+Tim McRae I don't have any vinyl backdrops, so I'm not sure who to get wrinkles out. Maybe rolling it up super tight on a spool? Let use know if you find something that works.

[@ChrisToysandGames]

Thanks!

[@DivineCline]

Does this method work on the Westport x-drop backdrop?

[@brightonwestvideo]

It looks like that one is supposed to stretch to remove wrinkles - it's not clear what fabric it is. But I would think this would work...
