So for the most part I have them down from straight acetone, to damar varnish if needed.
My question is do you guys prefer a certain paper brand over another? I got some paper from Walmart and apparently I’ve burned through the 500 pages over the past two years.
What I used was pretty thick paper and a lot of times the image wouldn’t transfer successfully and I feel like that played a big role in 2/3 transfers needing redone.
Any recommendations? At my job our invoice paper feels very cheap and thin but almost like it would be perfect in our practice.

If you can, take a couple of sheets home from work and give it a try.
I have had the most success with super smooth paper. Thickness didn't really matter all that much. What I did notice though, is the difference printing quality makes. The higher the resolution of the printer and therefor printed transfer, the better the transfer will work. Which makes sense really since there is much more toner on the paper.
