I've just watched a video where unisub coasters were held in position by DyeTrans ProSpray. Has anyone used a UK alternative spray adhesive on hard surfaces?

InkTec's standard sublimation paper is a little tacky when heated which does help not normally needing spray (using a rotary press rather than flat bed does too)
How tacky is Inktec's paper? Would it hold a unisub coaster in place or would you still need tape?

I tried the 3M 75 spray on coasters but it made a mess. The Conde spray I mentioned previously is what I really want though.

Inktec's works OK - sometimes it's a bit too sticky on hard substrates - slates seem to be the worst - with us soaking the worst ones overnight in water being the best way to cleanly remove.
This is for their standard paper - the tackyness I think is heat activated, so works OK going through the rotary press.
They do have proper tacky paper available, but is special order from Korea, not held as stock in UK
