"The oil, grease, or fat has about the same index of refraction as paper," says Scheckel. ... Most of the light thatwould be scattered from the not-oiledpaper is now transmitted through thepaper." Water has a lower index of refraction than paper fibers, which is why it generally does not make paper transparent
