[sdiy] Brass etching using inkjet paper or press-n-peel?

[julian Schmidt]

I use the laserprinter toner transfer methods for etching PCBs and there 
it works like a charm.
i just print it on thin paper from an electronic vendor catalogue 
(reichelt)...
normal paper doesn't work that good.
i just iron it to the pcb for some minutes, put it in warm water to peel 
of all the paper.
the transfered toner is really rigid... won'T come of with alcohol. i 
have to use aceton to get it of again.
