Put the top up and park the car out in the sun for a while, that should remove any creases.

A professional steamer works very well.

Either a steamer or I've had results just wetting it down good and parking it in the sun.

Thanks everyone for your replies . With this cold front that's moved in, I will need to wait awhile before leaving it outside in the sun.
Thanks and Happy Thanksgiving to all.

If you use the steamer method be sure to use distilled water.
