I think some people say, get a heatgun and 'pre-heat' the board, to I suppose
'pre-expand' it. But, if you iron from the BACK of the PCB, then I suppose the
film and copper will heat up at the same rate. Not that I would expect PCB and
film to have anything like the same thermal coefficient of expansion.
(that 'pre-heat' trick might refer tothe 'other' toner system. I'm still
collecting advice from everywhere, and still trying to find p'n'p in
Australia)
