Trust me. I've used Seal dry mount presses for 40 years; I've probably dry 
mounted 10,000 prints. Dry mount presses do not make anything flat. They 
will help you get rid of wrinkles if you use them skilfully, but if your mat 
isn't rigid enough to avoid curling, the dry mount press will make it worse 
instead of better. To get them flat, put them under weights overnight. 
Whether or not you've dry mounted them.

I'd ship you one of mine, but it wouldn't run on Oz mains, and the postage 
would be enough to buy an M6.
