Took the trim off for paint... How do I straighten it?

[Freshmaker]

I took the trim off my 87 for prep and paint today. The door trim had double sided tape, so although i took my time getting it off, there is still a new arc to the whole trim. I'm worried even I get it close to straight it will still have some waves when I put it back on.

Does anyone have a sweet trick for getting it back to straight?

I find that if I crunch it up really tight and cram it into my trash can, another one magically appears at my door, held by the UPS guy, wrapped in plastic and packed inside a cardboard box with packing peanuts. There's paper in there too, that says something about being shipped from McCords Vancouver Toyota in Washington state...

Short of that, you'll need a miracle to get that damn thing flat again.
