Too thick??  Is one coat too thick?  I tried it with 1 coat, 2 coats, and even
3 coats.  the one with the 3 coats seemed to work best.  Even on the
instructions it suggests that more that one coat works better.  One thing
strange...  The color of the PRE-sensitized boards were a different color
than the one I sensitized.  Does that have any factor????

What is Stahler mills????  I've never heard of that before...  Could you
please explain.  The only way I know of making a PC board without etching
it is wire wrapping or using copper stick on's.
