I added a photo of the wrapper of the pond shop inkjet photo paper I use to my folder, see:

It is a heavyweight paper at 250g

Thanks,

Circuit Boards - Dave's toner-transfer freezing
technique
Rick
I have had equal success using ink jet photo paper from our
local pound shop. It is a heavy weight paper, 10 sheets for
one UK pound, and the toner separation was complete. It
seems that the freezing after thermal transfer is the key.
The 0.005" boundary lines even transferred.

Rick, can you share the source, part number and mfgr, or
any other details
about the "special waxed paper"?

today. Wonderful material! I drafted a 1" long scale
with 10 major and 30
minor divisions on it using DesignCAD V14. It was then
printed, mirror
image, onto the wax paper. I printed 4 coupons at a time.
Two of these
coupons were taped to 2 small pieces of copper plate.

minutes. The
paper fell away from the toner. Then I dropped the two
samples in rather
used up ferric chloride that I put out in the Arizona sun.
Every 15 minutes
I would bump the container. After an hour I pulled out the
samples. The
toner was solid and I had etched down about 0.001"
according to my caliper.
The fine lines of the scale and numbers all looked
perfect.
