Some times I have scratch marks/streaks on my lamination. What is causing this and how do I stop it?
Scratch marks are a typical occurrence when using a heat shoe laminator. Scratches occur when the lamination film passes over the hard heat shoe surface. In order to completely eliminate this, a heated roller type laminator should be used. In lieu of purchasing a new machine, you can try cleaning the heat shoes with a roll laminator cleaning kit or roll laminator cleaning block. Dirty shoes may cause film scratching as well.
