Where are you located?  If you're in the US, you can get inexpensive 
copper clad from abcfab on eBay (I'm still waiting for approval to 
give out his email address).  If you buy, tell him Dennis Louie 
referred you.  I might get a referral freeby...

If you clean the board with 98+% IAP, it should remove any oil that 
would cause problems.  You can't use drug store rubbing alcohol 
because it has too much water and will make things worse.

Are you trying laser transparencies with the hot removal?

Dennis
