warped Minimoog Panal (was Re: anyone use plexiglass faceplates?)

[Budweiser [FtS]]

This brings me to a problem with my Minimoog that I am restoring.

The plastic panel that all the controls are set on, is slightly warped
around
the edges. I don't want to attack it just yet with a heat gun, I am thinking
maybe the best thing to do is completely disassemble the panel and
soke it in hot water or something?? Maybe squash the whole panel between
2 heavy peices of wood just after being heated with a heat gun?

any ideas?
