  8. Why is my laminate buckling?

    I'm having problems with laminates buckling. I'm pretty sure it's caused by humidity. As soon as I roll out the laminate to cut it to size it begins to buckle. Then it becomes impossible to apply it to the non buckled print. I'm posting to make sure there is nothing I am missing here. Is my...
