Pressing question ... 0

[Rich Matist]

My apologies in advance if this is ridiculous ..... but pressing is applied to both front and back? 

I just wanted to be sure -- a pressing candidate I have is immaculate, but has an ever so slight bend on the back cover. Not really a bend, but more of like a faint depression if you angle it just the right way in the light.

Most pressers use a Wavelength Thermo-gravitational Fluid (WTF) bladder on the bottom side of the press so the 2800 pounds of pressure do not affect the back cover.

At one point I would have thought this kind of post to be a joke, but after watching some of the pressing videos on YouTube and facebook it may be a valid one.

Okay ... i was prepared for it being received as a dumb question. But I did want to be sure 

Prompted me to do the searching! I did find the videos on this site that show several back covers having issues worse than mine perfectly resolved.
