Re: [Homebrew_PCBs] inkjet printing

Volkan, the breaking fluid indeed works!
I'm amazed, and stumped how you worked that one out.

No more puddling at all - looks great. Now i hope the breaking fluid will  
not hamper curing or etching - but i don't expect since everything you  
suggest seems to work ;-)

Test PCB next. Hopefully this time it finally works.
