Ebony & Ivory - PotC compass build-up

That part is a pain indeed.

I had a few test also - it took some time to find a proper paper.

Some recommand pages from catalogs but not all are suitable.

To remove the paper from the brass you need patience.

I put the brass with paper in a slightly soaped bowl of water for some time.

You can't peel off the whole sheet at once - first remove the first layer - then I rubbed carefully with my fingers the remaining paper fragments from the brass.

This can take half an hour.

Possibly your paper is not suitable - maybe to much plastic inside which will laminate to the brass through the ironing process.

What paper are you using exactly?
