We currently use a "wax" ESD coating on our floor. It is cheap and easy to repair. However, the maintenace on it is extensive. It also needs to be re-"waxed" quite often. There are permant coatings out there. I have started to look into these pro

You'll still have to mop the tiles bye the way to keep them clean. Instead of tiles I've used epoxy coating over concrete and used ESD wax. Had to clean floor and add wax about montly. We had one of those ESD floor testers to check. Epoxy floor was w

Hit wax dip of your edge connector. HVLP spray your conformal coating. hot alkaline wash to remove the wash. Followed by de-ionized water. Other techniques using peallable latex. Sarason

Yeah, we do have wrist straps, heel straps, ESD wax, and grounded ESD mats on all work benches. One guy with long fly-away hair was actually told to wear his hair pinned back as well - so started to wear a ball cap... Genny.

Interesting, never heard of using wax as a coating mask. Not sure how well the AR coating would hold up to a hot alkaline wash (unless you have experience with it), but that stuff usually starts to flake off/de-wet if you just look at it wrong. I'm

It's both solderpaste or PCB pad problem... 1st it's possible that your PCB exposure problem or old stocks, remedy? try to bake your PWB. 2nd, it's possible that PWB coating (wax) are more ticked so that solder paste flux are cannot penetrate to clea

But where does it go, that it needs to be refreshed or replenished on the stencil? Does that "just like wax" product wind up in my solder joints, no matter how small the percentage, and would it then qualify as a contaminant? I heard there are some (
