Yes you have sto soak it for a few minutes.. Water penetrates all the way thru! Some one suggested soaking paper in Vinegar. But I have not tried this yet!

No I do not ! I am very satisfied with this paper.. You still have to inspect the board
any way but on a large board I only have to touch up a couple of spots. But that is due
to me getting a little aggressive when I have paper to remove between traces when traces are very close together.
I did two 6.5 x 4.5 ich boards with many traces and pads that came out virtually perfect..
I use a GBC H535 laminator that I recently got at a bargain on eBay for less than $100 with shipping
and I get very good results on large boards 1/16 thick with no modifications. .
my printer is a used HP 2100 that I found on line from a office near my job for $25.. This
paper works great with a iorn on small boards.. I also found heating boards with a iron and using a
wall paper seamer roller from home depot to apply preasure works quite well also, if you have to use an iron.
my iron is a el-cheapo dry iron I found in a variety store for $10!(It has no hole in the sole plate!)
This paper is only $13 for 300 sheets.
