: If you want a permanent bond, spray both surfaces. Let it dry tacky, and you
: only get one chance to put the pattern on right. I do quite a bit of this
: for scrollsaw work. For a more temporary bond, only spray one surface. I
: dont usually do this, because the paper will tend to pull up on the edges
: of the cut.

: If you do want to remove tha pattern, soak the paper in paint thinner for
: about 5 minutes, and it will peel off.

I use 3M 77 to glue sandpaper onto fairing boards. A heat gun works great to remove old sandpaper.
