Spline not seating properly
Ensure the spline is correctly aligned in the channel. Apply firm, even pressure with the nylon spline roller. Check if the roller width is appropriate for the spline size.
Screen mesh is wrinkled or uneven
Use the nylon screen cloth roller with gentle, consistent pressure to smooth the mesh. Ensure the screen material is taut before pressing the spline.
