Hi Whacko,
No, I didn't try with acetone or toluene. I have not heard of that before. As a science (especially chemistry) teacher, maybe I should have thought of it!
I tried the iron method, and even modified an A4 laminating machine to take the boards. I went back to UV methods as I could never get fine traces to work cleanly.
I will definately give it a try - 0.1mm resolution without so much effort sounds good! I can't try yet, as I am moving house in a few weeks. But I have some CPLD's and DS80C400 MCU's, both 100-pin QFP package sitting here, just waiting for time to play with.
As soon as I am settled in my new "laboratory", it's the first thing I'll do.
Thanks for the suggestion, I'll let you know how I go on.
Cheers,
FoxyRick.
