Subject: Double toner transfer - how would this work out?
From: "lcdpublishing" <lcdpublishing@...>

After some research on PCB milling, I am re-thinking the process of
etching again - seems more logical to a certain degree.
Has anyone tried this with success..
As has been done - print layout, transfer, etch, remove toner with
acetone.
THEN
Print out the legends (silk screen layer) and/or solder mask and
perform the transfer again?
This would provide the legends for assembly, but I don't know what
would happen with regard to using the toner as a solder mask. As it
is plastic, it would probably contaminate the solder joint, but I
thought I would ask!
