We have not had the best of luck with wet film. I agree on your statement. Depending on the mix and amount of solvent your results will vary. We were looking for something easy, accurate and foolproof.

I would also suggest looking at your ramp rate in the cure oven. We noticed that accelerated heating increased the "gas out" of the solvent. We run 1A33 and and do not exceed a .5/degC ramp rate.

You aren't going to post our stuff on your "Hey, I'm the wizard site", are you? Board fab, Pad coatings, OSP 1 OSPs: Imidazole (Via Systems) is good. Entek (Enthone) works, but requires strict thickness control in fab. 2 Enthone CU56 allows one t

I'm using urethane conformal coat and have fisheyes and dewetting after coating even though the PWAs have been through the wash cycle twice. I'm looking at using Ionox 13302 in an ultrasonic cleaner as a short term solution until root cause can be id

Sorry been away for a while. It is actually due to high boiling solvents or plasticizers leaching from the porous resist that kills the cure as it puddles out and has nothing to adhere to. We do have some wipes to check the cure and are looking to ma

| Be consistant on: | 1 Keeping the coating material thinned. | 2 Using the same dipping motion on each board. Amen on thinning the coating, and you might also be concerned about the curing mechanism for the coating. Moisture-cured and 2 component

Thanks for the tip. I'm still getting familiar with the machine by reading the manuals as I have time. Was wondering what type of solvent you use to clean the dispensing mechanism parts? Or do you not clean anything and simply dispose of the syring p
