 :'( Cutting Down this 250micron Laminate is tougher than I expected!! Could do with a Guilotine. Slow Progress!!

Do you reckon running an iron over them with some cloth inbetween will help flatten them out a bit as they are not as flat as i'd like!!

It kind of all depends on how each person attaches them, but yes i'm hoping they will.

Are they curling as you laminate them?

Turn it down a bit and do them twice, once face up and once face down ;)

They are all laminated now apart from the black ones. Might try that on the black ones, They are not as bad once cut down but not perfect.
