Hi, Need your help. Easy one. How do you evaluate Spot-on Mask, those that are peelable and used for wave soldering and conformal coating? thanks and regards,

I am sick of Kapton. We have varying levels of leftover residues on multiple brands and I'm done chasing this thing. We have tested some wave tapes that were total garbage in years past. Really don't want to go there. Peelable liquid masks - Who

Hello Mike You'll have to be a bit more specific. Do you mean permanent solder mask like the normally green material or a temporary mask like the peelable/washable material? John Thorup

It depends on the carbon polymer that the fabricator printed on your board. It could be: * No wave soldering * Wave soldering with a peelable mask * Wave soldering ... probably one of the latter two. Watch it. Some temporary masks can affect the

now we use Solder mask from peters.de but it too thick so we can't use process for screen epoxy

If you are not washing and want to stay with a peelable mask the two basic types are vinyl and latex. Although we've seen some silicone and urethanes, they cost more. * Do not use latex peelable solder mask with a low residue soldeing process withou

I think silicone mask is ok, This is so that after soldering, you can use these holes to fit other components later. This peelable layer is needed, unless you want to solder each component manually--From ALLPCB

Why don't you use peelable/washable solder mask on the SMT components next to the T/H pins? Then, you won't have to worry about keeping the tight tolerances.

We are planning on converting to a no-clean soldering chemistry and will need to replace our water soluble liquid solder mask as a result. Does anyone know of a dispensable, "peelable" solder mask I can evaluate? It would be nice to find one that i

We prefered kapton tape to peelable mask, though, there is added time/effort to taping the boards, then removing the tape (if it's done hot, it can go pretty quickly). If you're at a volume where manual masking/mask removal is too time consuming, co
