Toner transfer Paper-update
in [Basics]

From: Hammy on 17 Jul 2010 10:34 A while ago their was a thread about paper used for PCB toner transfer method using a laser toner. The main grudge with using the recommended staples picture paper that Goatee recommends was difficulty in removing the fine final layer. Anyway's I found a cheap and widely available paper that works much better and is much cheaper it can be bought at Dollarama in Canada and probably the US. It is Likon Photo Paper Glossy 10 sheets for $1.25 It peels off completely when wet easily with your thumb. I just finished doing a 50w flyback and 275W PFC and I didn't have to waste time scraping off that final transparent layer once. It now takes about 15min to transfer and have a board ready to etch, nice.;-)
