I have a playfield with a serious bow (sag). It has not "self corrected". I ended up screwing angle iron to the bottom in a couple places. One piece I raised up about 2 inches with nylon spacers for clearance. So it's attached at each side with a screw in tension and one in the center in compression if that makes sense.
Quoted from P2K:I had to make a bridge to fix a dished/bowing problem. Kind of extreme but I couldn't get a clear path across the playfield to fasten a metal support.
This is pretty much exactly what I did on mine.
