I just take the two peaks down a fraction with a narrow file, this leaves a wide flat on the tops which provides a better gluing area and also reduces the remaining "depth" of the valley making it easier to get the cork to conform. I use a small smooth tool handle to firmly press the cork onto the surface after application to the groove. With good quality cork this works well (But good quality cork is becoming a rare item !!).
