I got some from Hannant's not used it yet but it is made by Experts-Choice
in the US, so must be good.

I haven't found a good inkjet paper even here in states. The last I
tried was Micro Marks.  I LOVE their copy/laser decal paper.  Their
inkjet paper has a good decal material for the sheet, but does not work
well with inkjet printers :-)  The printing reticulates and leaves a
fine pattern.  This was with both a Canon and an Epson printer.  Did not
 have an HP to try.

I have also tried all those tricks like various sprays, or rubbing the
paper with baking soda before printing.  Nothing works.

I have gone back to making color decals by printing out on plain paper
and taking printout and copy/laser printer to copy shop.

I DO make black decals by using my cheap black and white laser printer
on the copy/laser paper.  Works great.  With laser printer prices
plummeting (I saw a sale on black and white laser printer today for
fifty bucks), I may buy a color laser soon just for decals.
