What size needle and how many volts did you use
That's a quite common problem on fake skin, especially with smaller needle groupings like 3rl.
It doesn't necessarily mean it would happen on human skin (never happened to me on any person although it's happened to me a lot on fake skin), BUT still something to be aware and cautious of as there's always a risk for that especially with smaller needle groupings on human skin.

i would say watch your depth if you are cutting it.
i have a similar problem with mags. I find that unless I go over it a number of times it doesn’t pack the ink and have lines. Which then makes it furry and makes the tattoo look poor.
any suggestions would be great.

i was using 9rl and 11rl could be to low depth and to much speed?
Yes possibly. If you make a little cut across the line(s) you can see how deep you went. You do have to go a tad deeper in fake skin than on human skin, but with a 9 or 11 you shouldn't get cuts in the sheet.
Don't go deeper than absolutely needed, and experiment with lower machine speed and/or faster hand.
