Gel Smiling

[Andy Kravetz]

What causes a gel to smile, meaning the bands to curve upward and out?? I 
run a lot of minigels and sometimes get that effect on both the edges and 
the middle of the gel. Real pain in the neck. Any help would be 
appreciated. I use 1xTAE gels (1 percent)

thanks

andy
