Nothing sweet at all. Sorry your time loss, i just remember they had the
offer, search the address and posted it. I never done the process, and
for years that i didn't check their page.

I soak it because i want to cool it fast, there is other type that only
peels under water, mines are dry type, but i use water to not wait so
much. The peel step is really really easy, fantastical easy. But i use
more inkjet photo paper because, preesnpeel sheet aren't that cheap, and
i prefer to use them when i have enough boards to fill all sheet to
justify the spending. Oversea shipment and customs get expensive and
this is only sold in Europe for 3eur each sheet plus shipment so i not
intend to buy pressnpeel ever again.
I never used those green sheets but i don't believe they do a better job
than pressnpeel, and seem hard work. I also never tried to make at home
tracks under 0.4mm (16mils), but letters are thin and end right. My
laziness never liked doing dryfilm at home but I am not too proud to
post pictures either. I just want to finish the machines to build boards
for me and only worry with the developing part.
