Hello,
Does anyone have experience with how to get the best results with siser 3d puff using the Roland VP-540. We just received a roll and are a little confused as how to get the best resultd.
Thanks

I believe Siser manufactures the Solutions products, so check IW site. If my memory serves me right. I was told this at a trade show by Siser, but it could be one of the other printable products.

Lorri - Siser does not manufacture the Solutions products. You have been mis-informed.

I believe the degree of puff is determined by the amount of pressure you apply when pressing.
If I'm not mistaken, there's an explanatory PDF on Siser's site.

Rick, I don't think you'll be able to find specific instructions for cutting on your VC
It's a lot like cutting Glitter Flex.
I remove the liner and cut it on my flatbed cutter. Never tried it on my VERSACAMM.
Suppose if you were going to try and cut on a VC, you'd definitely need to adjust your downforce.
Here's a pdf:

I've cut Glitter print but not Glitter Flex or Sisers 3D on my VERSACAMM using about 150 gms

Use the test cut on the Versa. Adjust accordingly. Then cut a small sample. Keep a notebook of specific settings or enter in machine. Always keep a record somewhere of materials you work with. And remember blades wear over time. The setting you use today may not work next week. "ALWAYS TEST CUT FIRST ! "

I could not have said it better Butch, A quick test cut can save you a LOT of $$$$

Thanks folks, I've watched videos last night watching it being cut on a Roland plotter. Should work with the vp 60 degree.

Just a up date on the 3D puff, it cuts great with the VC. Already sold a sweatshirt for $25.00. Nice product but need to get a lot more creative after watching some videos and what you can produce using different materials along with Puff.

Did you get it to work. We just got some and had a few demo's from the manufacture., press on and then to puff you want no pressure hoover press lightly on top of film to puff
Siser aslo makes films for Stahls, I would guess IW. They only make the film material, Stahls and other press on their own carrrier.
