The toner fuses into the powder coat which is strongly bonded to the metal.
It takes a lot of rubbing with a 3M pad to get it off. Toner on clean copper
will fall off with a lot less effort.

Excellent write up!

Did you find that the toner adhered more readily/completely to the powder
coated aluminum than to a clean copper clad board?
