Re: [Homebrew_PCBs] Double sided cold toner transfer experiment

2016-01-31 by rolohar@...

Andrew and All: 

Just make sure that the solvent (acetone, xylene, etc) that you are using in your 
cold transfer process is not something that will attack any plastic parts of your 
laminator. Isol alchol most likely will be inert.............but make sure. 

Regards,

Look for a “brayer.” It is used for inking, for rolling out laminate to be glued down to counter tops and much more. The rubber can be of varying hardness, depending on application. Sounds like a hard rubber would work best.

Hi Roland 



A good idea with the cold laminator, I never thought of it. Thank you. 



By the way the roller you are using is a roller to apply ink on linoleum carvings. Probably available in a craft store at your end.

Good Idea: 





I use a rubber roller.......looks something like a paint roller, only smaller and with a rubber roller instead of 


fuzzy felt. 





If I had a laminator, I would use it with no heat, just to apply even pressure across the surface. 





One pass should be sufficient.
