  Try children's construction paper.  I'd forget the hot peel for resist
  - too much of the toner will stay with the paper. 

  You are doing a pretty challenging board for TT. I've got a TQFP test
  case somewhere that I'll dig up and try.  When I used heavily coated
  paper, I got too much trace bloom for it to work but with the inkjet
  paper, it ought to do ok.

  interesting.  might even be reusable...  I like the way you think. 
  Basically, the goal is to increase the copper/toner adhesion and/or
  decrease the paper/toner adhesion.
