We usually get some mask material from our board house. It cures with heat so it works really well in our applications. Be wary of the "overcoat pens" they don't seem to hold up under heat and thre solder will flow right underneath it during BGA a

I guess i might want to throw this in for future reference. After speaking with our board supplier he states that this mask is fully cured when it reaches approximately 180C. I beleive this since we usually probe the repaired area after putting the

Why are you placing Kapton dots on your board prior to wave soldering? * Prevent solder from touching the hole and the area around it. [If so, why do you need to do this?] * Prevent solder from flowing up through the hole and coating portions of the
