I've just done some moulding with spread tow cloth and I'm getting odd crease marks on the tows whcih look like it needs ironing.  Having checked back on the roll the marks are there in the dry cloth.  Any ideas on how I can get rid of them?  Really hard to photograph but here's my best go.

Not sure it could be hidden from visibility at close range. I wouldnt recomment ironing the carbon!!!

You would have to see on a test piece how the fibres react when wetted out.
