    Default Cedar blinds bowed when oiled

    I've just oiled 1 side of my cedar venetian blinds and they're bowing as they dry. I have yet to flip them over to oil the other side. How do I reverse the bowing? At the moment I've just put weights on the ends to flatten them.

    Once you've oiled both sides equally they should dry straight.
