Hi All,
Just a quick question regarding the Toner Transfer method.
This may already have been tried and written about, and i've missed it.
Has anyone ever tried Greaceproof paper?

Hello Darren,
The idea of using grease-proof paper or Waxed paper for TT methods has crossed my mind in the past. However the possiblity of the paper sticking to the transfer/heating rollers of my Laser printer, causing all kinds of damage does not seem worth it.
A previous post(in the last two weeks) gave a method of using a water proofing agent, sprayed onto the standard laser paper.
The paper is then coated with Dextrin(I think this is the correct compound). This a water soluble compound(Instructions are provided on the methods and products used) and then printed/laminated in typical TT fashion. The board is then soaked until the Dextrin has dissolved, allowing the paper to be peeled off the board.
This method offers a low cost and viable solution to TT.

Hi Chester,
I'll try and find the previous thread you speak of.
I did read something i found on a web sear about spraying ordinary paper with a silicon based water repellant and then as you state coating in a Dextrin solution, 'baked cornflour & water, via reduction'.
It's, a bit of a-long-winded process, but i might just try it, as the Xerox paper i have, and tried doesn't seem to leave enough toner @ 100%, and the Kodak glossy photo paper i have leave's behind a lot of residue 'don't know if this is a clay based', but end up rubbing the toner away in the attempt to remove the residue. The residue, when soaked does become translucent, but not enough for the FeC13 to do it's work.
