Good for 3D puff
- Column width is fine (min 4 mm for 3 mm foam).
- Columns are narrow enough for satin to wrap the foam.
- Letter height is good for puff.
The puff rules
3D puff only works when satin columns are wide enough to wrap the foam. Columns under about 4 mm (0.15 in) on 3 mm foam tend to break through or flatten, and very wide columns over about 12 mm need to be split or the satin loosens.
| Foam | Minimum column | Minimum letter height |
|---|---|---|
| 2 mm | 3 mm | 10 mm |
| 3 mm | 4 mm | 13 mm |
| 4 mm | 5 mm | 16 mm |
