OK, with all the hype i have heard about this paper i went and got
some today from my local Staples store.

Just tried it and its poo. It printed just fine in the laser and
looked like it was going to be good. But as soon as the iron touched
it, it stuck to the iron. Not a good sign! So i placed some normal
paper on top and continued to iron, them dumped it in some warm
water. Five minutes later i come back to the water soaked board and
try to pull some of the paper off and its stuck solid to the board,
not just where the toner is but, also the paper is stuck solid. I
soaked it some more and found that there is a plastic coating on the
back of the paper and managed to pull that off. and soaked some more.
15 minutes later is still stuck like poo to a blanket! In fact i
think i'm going to have to throw out this bit of copper clad board
because i just cant get the stuff off.

Well i guess the paper we have here in the UK is not the same as the
stuff they sell in the staples in the US.

Has anyone else tried this stuff in the UK ?
