Hey, good to hear someone else is using verbatim paper.
Which is yours, is there any number or weight or anything? Maybe we can
find out if we use the same.

The verbatim i have is more work to remove than other papers, but it is
the paper with which i can get the finest traces and also have large
ground planes with not holes or defects. Also, it leaves a nice black
transfer after some rubbing with foam rubber, clay papers leave that grey
residue which is not nice for component legend.
I haven't really tried many papers, i think 5 in all and 3 of them worked.
