How to use

Place the document centrally inside the laminating pouch, ensuring edges are free from dust and folds. Insert the sealed edge of the pouch into the laminator first, following your laminator manufacturer's feed direction and temperature settings appropriate for pouch laminating. Allow the laminated item to cool flat before handling to ensure the adhesive sets and the glossy finish remains smooth. If necessary, trim excess film with a suitable cutter, avoiding cutting too close to the sealed edge.

Usage recommendations

For consistent results, use clean, dry documents and allow the laminator to reach the recommended operating temperature. Match pouch thickness and laminator capacity; avoid forcing thicker pouches through underspecified machines. Store pouches flat in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain adhesion quality and prevent curling.
