This review is from: SPR15025 - Padding Compound, Compatible With All Paper, 1 Quart, Red (Kitchen)

The padding compound itself works great. What is more important is the process by which you pad your paper. A few tips: 1. Clamp the paper between two pieces of straight hardwood or MDF fiberboard. Plywood has a tendency to have small voids where the grain is. 2. Use scrap paper as a buffer on the top and bottom of the stack. When applied, the compound invariably gets on the surface of the top and bottom pages. 3. Use chipboard or something else that is somewhat rigid for the back if the paper is larger than a quarter sheet. 4. 1st coat should be light, 2nd coat can be thick. 5. You can make huge stacks (>200 pages) but be careful not to let the stack go unsupported by holding half the pages at a time. 6. If you are making many small pads at once, try applying compound to opposite edges of a stack of 8.5 x 11 paper then cut it however you want to. Band saws work great if you are skilled and don't have a fancy paper cutter. If not, take a bunch to Kinko's, then they can make them exactly the right size. Be careful, sometimes they won't cut paper with compound on them. Have fun.

Wonderful product. It allows me to recycle used paper as scratch pads. I knew someone else who used it in a church, otherwise I wouldn't have known of it's existence. It saves trees!
