Anyone ever try this? You just coat a piece of paper with hairspray, print a reverse image onto it with your inkjet printer, put it facedown on your enclosure & use a spoon to rub it on. It's how I did the dr boogey not long ago, and it turned out pretty nice I think and was super easy... but now I'm trying to do the same thing with my pink BYOC beaver and it just doesn't want to transfer at all. I can spoon it for 20 minutes and nothing happens. (haha) ... anyways, has anyone ever run into this? It's a different kind of hairspray and paint, cause Krylon doesn't come in pink here, and I have no idea what I used for hairspray last time.

Here's a few token shots of the pcb, just for helping out.

Hmm, I'm starting to think that this hairspray is just not creating enough of a sheen on the paper. Might have to raid my niece's bathroom for some different kinds.
Ah, figured it out. I'll drop it here in case somebody else has this problem.. You need to use a hair product that says it makes your hair shiny. I used something out of a squirt bottle that adds shine, and it worked great.
