Using the EBAY yellow toner transfer paper?
I tried the cheap EBAY TRF :
and just for the fun of it bought the shiny metallic gold TRF
for the grandchildren projects on paper.
more detailed etch process:
Noting that I would rather manually trace ALL of the toner
traces with a felt tip permanent marker
because that way I KNOW if there are any big missing pads or
traces.
?????????????????????????????????????????????????? Pressing TRF
will NOT fix those spots.
???????????????????????????????????????????????????? Pressing
TRF will fix the porous nature of the toner.
My PRE toner press board preparation consists of sanding with a
fine grit sand paper then washing with pure acetone.
I have gotten very consistent results again and again and again
but once in a while I get a particularly gruesome toner
transfer.
with considerably more missing toner spots.?
I don't freak out... I know I just run over the traces with a
permanent marker and clean it up.
Good info Rob. The sharpie is our friend. So you are not a fan of
the TRF then I see. I guess if you have thick toner and it all
transfers perfectly then you should be done. But on finer traces etc
the TRF may help, but use a Sharpie for insurance.
