O.215 dull finish

[Vinyldog]

Something happened today that has never happened. I broke open a new roll of Oracal 215 Laminate and was not pleased with the finish. Looks more like satin than gloss. I have a roll of 210 with better gloss. I did double check the box to make sure it's G and the box does not look old at all.

It's usable, I don't intend to return it, but surprising.

dullness

I've been in contact with Dean. Here is the photo I sent him. The shiny area to the left is a piece of O.210 Gloss. It may not appear that the area to the right of it is laminated, but if you look closely you can see a faint line that is the top of the sample of O.215G from the roll in question.
It has set overnight with no change. The situation is constant as far as I have unrolled the material which is about twenty four feet.

Oracal verified that this lot numb. was gloss and was not simply put in the wrong box. They picked up the roll last week, but have not responded with what the problem was.I did also get a call from the supplier US Cutter. Looking back it would have been better to discuss the problem with them first I think.
