[Homebrew_PCBs] short update on silicone paper

2005-06-08 by Stefan Trethan

doesn't make a good etch when spreading the silicone so thin that the  
paper shines through.
Uneven surface leads to spots with too little toner and pinholes after  
etch, even tho all the toner is tansferred.

Using more silicone (just enough to cover all paper fibers) works ok.

Problem is with inkjet paper pinholes are much easier covered.

Did make good PCBs tho, and it works without any problems for component  
legend.
