Or, if you have the same cooking skills that I have, you may be best to put it in a pile of 12" stacked on top of one another for a couple of weeks.
I did this with my copy of Fields Of The Nephilim - Burning The Fields EP which I bought very cheap coz it was warped and unplayable. It is very playable now!

Gentle pressure over a sustained period has never failed for me, so I'd strongly advise you try that before subjecting it to heat. A few heavy books of the right size stacked on top of it is another option here.
If I told them once, I told them a hundred times to put 'Spinal Tap' first and 'Puppet Show' last.
