IPC-FA-251 recommends 121*C for 30-60 minutes for 1 and 2 flex layer circuits. A rigid flex can take easily an hour per layer depending on the construction.

Is anyone conformal coating flex circuits?

We had a contract in house that included a flex board which required an 18 hour bake at 105 degrees. The other brds got along fine with 2 hours, but the flex board would delaminate until we went to this long bake. I don't know how the engineer came
