Subject: GREEN TRF is the the same thing as Heat Transfer Foil Pigment Laser Toner Foil

From: Rob <roomberg@...>

I just got a 100 foot roll of Heat Transfer Foil Pigment Laser Toner Foil
for $15 from EBAY.

I cut a 2 inch by 2 inch square of this stuff and covered it with baking
parchment paper
and laid it on top of a laser printed circuit on plain paper....... then
slowly heated it with a plain soldering iron.....
and the green pigment stuck instantly to the black laser toner... but
not the paper.


I have not played with copper or etching yet but this initial test was
extremely encouraging.
