Hi there, I have just pressed a few metal magnets and some are displaying an orange peel type of effect. Others are fine. Anyone had this and know how to prevent it.Pressing at 200 for 65 secs with firm pressure. Hope someone can throw some light on it. Many thanks.

An update to this problem.... sorry for delay but it takes a while for stuff to get sent out to me here in Grenada. It appears it is the paper. When I try to press from one type of paper I get very inconsistent results so I ordered some texprint hr paper and bingo good result every time.The other paper is fine when pressing mugs and coatsers just doesn't work with metal.
