Make sure the panel is really clean. I use an ultrafine scotchbrite
pad (the gray one) wet with soapy water. I rub in one direction only
(length-wise). Then I rinse with water, dry it , and give it a final
wipe with acetone. Don't touch the surface from this point on. In
addition to ironing, I also use a soft rubber brayer with a fair
amount of pressure. Also make sure the panel edges are free from
burrs. They'll keep the iron from making good contact with the panel.
