I have ust had a job in that needs a suedette mount with a bevel aperture. Cutting it is fine on my CMC but it leaves tramlines from the cutter roller around the cut-out. As I can't cut the bevel from the back, is there any way that the tramlines can be removed? Any help gratefully recieved

We always cut suedette mountboard from the back - that is the only surefire way to avoid tramlines. :D

The reason we couldn't cut from the back was the spring in the board. We have a vacuum bed and it was springing up - even with masking tape to hold it down. Hence top cut.

Thanks Steve N, a very useful thread.
