80ppm). The CTE of your board and solder joints will typically be 18-22ppm. We have seen cases were the coating fills the gap between the component and the board, then during temperature cycling the coating expands to the point of breaking the solder

You can stop cleaning after a job when there is no more paste in the apertures. Under wiping should be done with a quality cloth and should leave no paste on the underside of the stencil (assures good contact on the next print and reduces chances of
