worked PERFECTLY!!!! Life saver!!
Love your videos matt 😃
For the love of my sanity, thanks for the tip. It works.
IT WORKS.
Dude! You are my new best friend! I honestly didn't believe what I was seeing. Thanks for passing this on. I was just on Amazon shopping for steamers but now I'll just go get a sprayer!
Glad to be of assistance Randy. I hope it saves you as much time as it's saved me over the years.
Wish I had known this years ago .... and not just for my backdrops, but for my kids' wrinkled clothes, lol!!
HelpMeRandy yes me too
I'm stunned at how well this worked... totally saved me on my shoot for tomorrow.
thank you thank you thank you as a very amateur and disabled photographer this will be a life saver
This just eased my panic! I just got a Silverlight back drop and it was so wrinkly and I had no idea how to fix it. Thanks so much for this super easy fix!
This guy literally has a backdrop for a backdrop
OMG you are life save. i was struggling with this situation for Last 3 years. but the thing you told today. is a magic. amazing
Excellent that this was helpful for you. Thanks for commenting.
Great tips on how to remove these wrinkles. I tried it and was amazed at the results.
Impressive! That was some Gandalf The White magic right there! 🧙♂️🔮✨
Terrific demo as I have my newly-unfolded muslin draped outside in humid Florida to try to relax the wrinkles. Now to get a spray bottle with hot water!
this seriously is a life saver!!!
+Brittany Nicole - Thrilled to hear it worked out for you.
Well done. Great tip
Thanks Travis, this reenforces how I have been doing it. The pressure sprayer would make life easier.
Thanks for watching. Happy to hear it helps.
Excellent video and tutorial! I used an empty Windex bottle filled with water tonight on a brand new black backdrop. Worked like a charm!
I watched this video a month ago I invested in a weed sprayer and use hot to warm water wrinkles practically come out within minutes. I also invested in a steamer for those impossible creases works wonders. All my backdrop cloths are wrinkle free and on a rolling system that's attached to my wall gives me an extra foot of shooting space.
This is genius! Thanks a lot! I'm gonna try it on my shirts so I don't have to iron them!
youre awesome
thank you.
Put them on a hanger and hang them from the back of the bathroom door as you shower. The steam will remove most wrinkles.
lol
@@tstuff What is a hanger?
@@bikersoncall A coat hanger.
Wow, That was quick, Thanks for sharing that idea. I will watch more of your ideas! Great Job Sir!
Finding this just made me so happy! What a gem!
are you a damn wizard or what. Really mate, i just started working with studio background and i was looking for some trick to help me with all those damn wrinkles, thinking about ironing a damn 3x3m badass cotton square was giving me a really bad mood =S really thank you! oh and this is my first subscribed channel, take even a like and this comment! many thanks, hero!
LOL. You will find this much simpler than ironing. Glad it saved you some frustration and thanks for the Sub.
literally saw the wrinkles disappear . thanks for sharing :)
Just did this on a new muslin backdrop and it worked a treat - thanks for the tip!
Press 1 and 9 for a before and after! :)
Best piece of advice ever! Thank you!
I have been struggling with wrinkles on my new Silverlake backdrop. Will definitely be trying this next.
+Joe Ciarrocchi - Give it a try Joe. I think you will be very happy. This is how I prep every Hand Painted Muslin before shooting.
That really was fast! That warm water is basically the same principal as steaming, but it was impressively fast!! Not to mention, you don't have to rely on electricity and get a decent smidge of exercise :D
This is awesome, was looking for an easy way to get the wrinkles out of my backdrops...I have several "cormakey green, blue, have black and white and couple of multi colored" I will try this tomorrow...will let you know what the outcome is.
So simple never thought!! Thank you for the great tip!
Handy trick to remember. Now to get one of the garden sprays to keep with my gear.
WOW! That simple!
Can’t wait to use!😀
Are you guys based out of SIilverLake in Los Angeles?
LOL Damn, I have to admit, that was quicker then I thought..
Awesome! You can watch the wrinkles disappear. Outstanding Thank you
+Denny - So happy you liked it.
This worked flawlessly. Thank you!
Excellent tip, and the video makes a LOT of difference. Thanks!
Great Demo!
Just saved me a couple hundred bucks. Thanks!
It makes my day to hear that this was valuable information for you Jason. Glad it helped!
That is great. Now i don't have to worry about ironing it. Will try it tomorrow with a hand sprayer first.
awesome video.... simple yet to the point... Thanks for the upload
I bought a couple of vinyl backdrops,
the sales photos just showed beautiful
scenes. When I took them out of the pkg,
the looked terrible, still do. So I see that
vinyl is the ticket, got it!!
Vinyl is a completely different beast. On the plus side, it is one of the least expensive substrates available. On the negative side, they will be absolute wrinkle nightmares.Vinyl backdrops are often the same type of material you would get with a disposable tablecloth. This method will not work on vinyl as it is basically plastic and will not absorb the water in any way, so the wrinkles will not release the same way that these Muslin backdrops do.
@@silverlakephoto Thanks..
I shop amazon, when I
search; 'Muslim' or 'Cloth' backdrops,
the return is saturated with vinyl
backdrops, I need a better source than
amazon. I have stage scenes, I need
to replace them, but it looks like most
of the Cloth/Muslim drops are for
photography; weddings, that sort of
thing. :shrugs:
@@bikersoncall - You can use our website silverlakephoto.com for muted patterns. If you are looking for more of a stage scene, check denny manufacturing. They have been a leader in the backdrop industry for decades. They do not deal in low quality products.
@@silverlakephoto Thank you , much
appreciated.
How wonderful! thank you brother
but how to remove wrinkles from polyester backdrop ?
I'm not sure whether you are talking about some of the Polyester blend backdrops that we sell or some from another company, but our polyester backdrops can be washed and run through a dryer or placed in a dryer with a wet towel. This is an effective hands off approach to wrinkles in polyester, but if it's not one of ours, I would recommend consulting the care instructions first.
Thank you this has had me tearing my hair out up until now great informative video :)
One of the best tips ever!!
wow them Wrinkles literally fell right off that was awesome!
this was brilliant i will give it ago i have just ordered my first backdrops xx
Im not a photographer just a simple aspiring youtube guy and I wanna buy this tripod with T bar extension where I can hang the backdrop to cover my messy home as background but i am highly curious how these creases would look like in the camera... Can you make video showing to us how an unironed muslin looks like compared to ironed ones.
Wow! So helpful. Can’t wait to try this
Thsnks for the backdrop help! Great title intro too who made it?
thanks for the great tip. learn something new every day
Absolutely brilliant, subscribed!
subscribed immediately!!!! Thanks
Great tip! thank you...saved me from going out and buying a steamer:)
This is the best tip ever! Thank you!!
thx i needed a way to remove the wrinkles and creases in my green screen.
Lovely! Now I saw the wrinkles disappear in the video, but how about the creases? I saw some go away, but not all of them, is it possible to get them out or do you just spray some extra on deeper creases?
+Chris Adval The creases will disappear as well. If they are not going away, apply a bit more water front and back. We have used this on drops that have sat heavily compressed for a couple of years and we are ready to shoot on them in just a few minutes.
Very impressive!
Thanks a lot great information.
You're a life saver.
I work for clothing wholesaler SouthSurplus,com and you have just made my life easy
thanks for great video
Glad to hear you found it helpful. Let us know if we can help you now or in the future with any of your backdrop needs.
Travis Gadsby My only concern would be that the fabric might mildew hanging in my studio. Should I use a hand held hair dryer to avoid this after the wrinkles have fallen out?
D. Allen Martin Humidity levels will vary in different parts of the country and different seasons, but we have never had any issues with mildew. In reality, you are not putting much water on it for the size of the material. By the time we are done shooting, the backdrops do not even feel damp to the touch.
Travis Gadsby Thanks. I live in Missouri, so it was a concern due to humidity levels in the summer.
Thanks great tip
wow amazing
This is awesome! Thank you so much. I will have to give this a try.
impressive! saved me from buying a steamer - thanks
This works so well for me.
OMG, WOW, that was incredible. I do have a question though, you said you wet it and then you are ready to store it, aren't you afraid of molding because the fabric will be moist and if you fold it without drying it will mold, so was I correct to hear that?
David Macias - you will want the backdrop to be fairly dry before folding to prevent mold or mildew. Our climate is quite dry and the backdrops are typically dry enough to fold after I have shot for an hour or so. In a very humid climate, it might be necessary to toss it to the side and fold at the end of the day rather than the end of the session.
That was pure magic!
I purchased a steamer for nothing! Great video!
Gracias por el consejo!!! Me ha servido mucho.
Great tip!
Seriously Amazing!
Great advice, thank you
Hi, may I ask how to do with floor with water set up?
Great tip! Thank you!
excellent thanks for sharing
Great tip, thank you.
I am sitting down now after washing and ironing a huge new muslin backdrop. Why, of why, did I not see this video first ?
I will not make *that* mistake again .:-)
+Derek Slater - Glad to hear it helped you.
+Derek Slater lol but remember that time cause you wont have to do it ever again, this is seriously awesome!
omg me too. i was ironing the bloody big 3m x 6m backdrop. unreal
Derek Slater neflix
@@chenakm Same here ironing while spraying but nothing change. Last resort get steamer iron.
really cool thanks great tip
I purchased non woven backdrop material, will this method still work?
Thank for the tips,
Hiii thanks for much need tip .. it's had to wash took 1hr Nd iron ... What type of liqued u spray sir
Great advice!! Thank you !
You're right....it works
This didn't work for me..
Helpful thanks !
Right on!! Thank you! Cheers!
Do you just let it dry ? Also would a steamer work??
Yes. Just let it air dry. Takes about 20-30 minutes before it's ready to fold, depending on your climate and the humidity. Steamers also work fine. It is just a way longer and slower process.
Awesome, great tip. Have you ever had a problem with mold or do you reckon it dries too quick to retain moisture?
+cormaccrawley - We are located in a very dry climate and never have trouble with the backdrop drying by the time we have finished shooting. If you live in a very humid area, it would be wise to give it enough time to dry without being damp as to avoid any mold or mildew.
wow... This is awesome.
Great trick! Thanks!
Great article. Keep it up.
Thanks for the tip!
wow thanks so much for the tip
Have you tried vinyl's backdrops?
Hi where can I get that backdrop from?
Great tip. Curious how you store them, and after storing, do you need to re-do this, or are they still decently wrinkle free?
The more you use a Hand Painted Muslin, the more the fibers will break in and the less wrinkle issues you will have. Once I have used a muslin for a few months, they really don't have much for wrinkles, unless we have folded and stacked or set something heavy on them. For storage, we have a cubby type set up that we just loosely ball them and stuff them in the storage compartments that allow us to see what we have going at any given time.
you GENIUS! thank you!!!
Do you know where I can find this background? And what are the measurements of it?
Ti and Chrissy - give us a call. We manufacture these backdrops and they are on sale today for Cyber Monday. Silverlake Photo 208-732-5788. There is a backdrop behind that is 20x20, but the one being sprayed down is a 10 foot by 20 foot. Yes. We can create one for you.
Good info video, Sir!!!! Thank you
Brilliant!
