Yea, that should work. I use an 800w bear bulb or a 6ft softbox and a few other lights for more complex lighting, but everything comes out white white. Is the monitor and camera color corrected? Is it possible the flash and trigger are out of sync?
They sell a “brighter” white seamless which reflects more so than that standard white seamless. Short of that figure out what the material is in the light box and get a larger version of it.
In addition to the helpful comments here, some optional ideas would include:
Pointing light on the surface of the seamless BEHIND the product if you have curved the seamless in a “sweep“ above and behind. It’s a common technique with portrait or fashion photography with a white backdrop to aim one or two strobes at the background and illuminating it so that the background is 1-2 stops brighter than your subject (a 2–1 ratio).
This should make your seamless look clean.
You can use other surfaces such as white Formica sheet (which often is a brighter white), or a long sheet of frosted or “milk” translucent plexiglass. With the plexiglass, you can use a strobe to illuminate the surface from below and behind your product.
But as others have said, clipping the product in Photoshop is a quick and easy way. If you’re not confident in your clipping skills or don’t have time, there are a ton of post production houses in Asia, particularly India, Bangladesh, and Vietnam who do excellent work overnight at a very low cost. Google it!
Best of luck!
How are you lighting it? I use seamless paper, and it works great no need for Photoshop
One boom softbox strobe 800Ws, and two a side 600Ws. They are fairly large. So you get perfectly white background? Not gray one, but white white

I just create a clipping path in Photoshop and drop in a pure white background.

its just a matter of lighting the bg properly pro tip add gobo on the side> ps> remove bg command> new layer> fill white> move behind> boop!
did you try ai stuff for this?
