I stored my door panels the wrong way now I have crease lines in the vinyl. I am looking for someone with experience on how to remove the creases. I tried a steamer and it helped a little but they are still there. Any help or ideas on what others have tried would be appreciated.

^^^ a hair dryer or a heat gun is a very effective way to make vinyl more malleable, after heat is applied. I've used this same principle to apply vinyl inserts along my car's dash/interior. So if the same concept applies, it wouldn't be a bad idea to at least try.
