Cylinders with Cave-In Damage

Damage: Large cave-in caused by jam-up.
Example:

 

"I own a large six-color sheet-fed printing press.  One night while it was running a large amount of shop towels was drawn into the press.  This jam-up created a lot of pressure between my blanket and impression cylinders.  Now there's a low area in each of these cylinders and my press will not print uniformly any more.  I need help!"
In-Press Solution: Press low area out with no blemishes
