Some months back there was a thread on making carbon tissue. Several
people on the list mentioned that Mylar could be used as a base,
including me, because a couple years back I coated 10-20 sheets of
tissue on this base without any problems. More recently however I
purchased some Mylar from Light Impressions and encountered a major
problem, mainly that the coating simply peeled off the base when it
dried. Does anyone have any idea how this might be avoided? Would like
to hear from those who have been using polyester bases for coatings.
