I have an old Gevaert (1949) Photographic manual saying:
you can render paper transparent by using the following formula:
mix together 8 cm3 of camphorated oil, 4 cm3 alcohol, add 1 cm3 of paraffin.
Gently apply that mixture on the back of the paper using a batting.
The coating will dry quickly and the texture of the paper disappear.
If you have all these ingredients, maybe it worth trying...
