kinked blinds

Hoping someone can help me. The blinds in our lounge where tied up on themselves for 3 months (living in other accommodation due to 2 large floods).

Anyway, hoping to move back next week. Have undone the blinds and there is a kink in the middle of each strand of blind (vertical blinds, Hillarys - material quite thick).

The builders have tried ironing the kink out to no effect. Not sure if they had the iron hot enough/steam etc using a tea towel to protect the blind.

Anyone any ideas of how to get the kinks out? Anyone else had this problem?

If you double check with the manufacturer they may be machine washable. If so tick it through on a cold wash and this may reset the fabrics memory and lie straight.
Otherwise I think it could be a new set of vaned I'm afraid.
