Default Canning condition, how to fix?

Began gap fitment on my doors today. going very well, except I made the mistake of thinking the solid wire and the door being strong on the edges as well as having plenty of "heat sink" holes, I wouldn't have to worry about heat and warpage.

another rookie mistake. I warped the new door skin at the bottom area, and even worse, it has a canning condition. mad at myself! nice door skins to!

how do I fix that? shrinking disc that I've seen folks talk about? will heating the area with a butane torch and then quenching it with a cold rag fix it? I don't want to make it worse using the wrong technique, I don't know if I need to shrink the metal, or expand it.

help is very much appreciated. I'm in panic mode over it.
