You may want to make a few thin cuts to separate some of the strips so you are only rebending 3 to 4 strips at a time, or if it has not been too long a heat gun can soften epoxy.
Having extra hands around when rebending and clamping would probably be very helpful. I have often wanted a 3rd or 4th hand.
