Homebrew PCBs

More out of curiousity than actually contemplating switching technologies... 
Would it be alright to run acetate through a Laserjet? I have this (likely 
unfounded) fear that it'll make a gooey mess, or at least come out warped 
from the heat. It's probably OK, right? The laminator gets hotter, and I 
don't have a conceptual problem with that.

I've looked at photo-inkjet prints through a 50x microscope (color photos, 
hitting a personal all-time low in grain sniffing), and don't expect the 
print quality to approach that of even my eight year old LJ4. Comments?

Also, is Datak's Tinnit "plating" effective as an etch resist? I'm thinking 
of it in reversing a negative image to a positive.
