Engine decking issue(help)

Okay thank you i will check one more time just to be sure(even though plastigauge is a pain to remove lol) thank you guys for your input as this had me worried

Make sure you get some that's fresh, too. It's cheap, so......

Also, you measure yours differently than I do. I do them one at a time and turn the crank so it's easy to get to and I don't have to stick the paper down between crank throws. Lastly, I don't know that adding the vasoline didn't change your measurements. Might try without it.
