: I don't know if the glue will seal the wood, but the risk of it interfering
: with epoxy adhesion is reason enough to avoid it since there are other
: ways to transfer the lines.

or a neat idea out of this is to demand all plans printed on 2 oz glass and then just layup in the matrix, heh heh. (this glass is on i/s)

: .... but all are equally difficult to remove.
: Elmers and PVA have to be sanded off.

no, elmers or other pva's are stone easy to just wash or scrub off(i use bristle nail brush) with water. the only downside is keeping the wrinkles down by minimal glue (to keep swelling down as well) vs how well the plan is adhered.
