YES very wide.
MACK TRUCK highway lanes wide.
My vision is impaired.
so bigger is better for me....
nothing I do is ever going to be used in anything real world for 
sale...state of the art being
smaller is better.....SMT... etc... its just hobby stuff.
BUT
the experiment IS the same...laser print....  heat toner.. transfer to 
copper and  etch.

Noting that sometimes the toner transfered is not perfect...has very 
tiny pitting....
so
thie idea here is to cover all traces with this next layer...green 
stuff... pigment....
and then have less pitting damage to copper traces.

My solution to this pitting problem was to trace all toner with a
SHARPIE or EDDING 404 permanent marker
BUT
and this is the real reason for using TRF
WHEN IT GETS REAL SMALL I can't , you can't, expect to trace the real 
thin lines
and pads without screwing up the artwork too much so
TRY the green stuff
and see if it cures the normal pitting.

  TWO heats doesn't seem to be a problem.
I'm not mashing with rollers though.
So I don't get that extrusion factor.
