Scratching laminate.

[NightMare Graphix]

I am using orajet 210 laminate and when I apply it I am scratching it or I guess you could say it's putting a haze on the laminate. I have used a couple different types of squeegeess and I get the same results. Am I missing something? are there better squeegeess out there? any help would great.

I have used the mactac tan looking one and one similar to the one in the pic you posted and same result.

I read the title as scathing laminate.

Thankfully none of my laminates have ever had their own opinions.

I have applied glossy 210 with plastic and felt. Both scratch but I've been TOLD that the scratching goes away within 2-3 days if it's in sunlight. Haven't ever gone back to see if it really did go away, but customer has never called complaining?

Before i switch to 3M vinyl and lam i used the Big Squeegee and never had a issue. Of course it would scratch with a plastic squeegee though, The divits you can't see along the edge will scratch it.

Myself, I did read scratching, however, my first thought was that probably the best and most decisive and efficient way of scratching laminate would be with one of these

It goes away with heat from the sun, or you can just take a torch and heat it, they go away

Least "scratching" squeegee I've used is a wet (with plain water) Geek Wraps squeegee. Even dry it scratches less than any other I've tried but it just glides when the edge is wet.
