If they spring right back when you try to pack them , you probably have too much thread tension when you laid them down. The threads need to be fairly loose. tight enough so you can keep them columnated but loose enough so you can easily move them with the tip of the burnishing tool and they will stay put. there are many tricks but for you , start by wrapping the next one with less tension on the thread.
the key to pro quality cross wraps is in the packing. Anyone can figure out what order and direction , etc to lay down thread but can you pack the threads when the build up is high? When a pro looks at a cross wrap , he will not even look at the real details if he sees daylight showing through everywhere.
