Larry...LISTEN ! : From my experience you are asking for trouble by thinkin what ur thinkin. The scary part is that you probably supply plasma arc accumulator boards for NASA.

It's it curious that NASA requires 'Thickness measurements shall be made with a wet film thickness gauge or equivalent tool' yet specifies 'cured thickness' as a measure. Why do you recon they do that?

We just measure the coupon before and after. We are always btw .002" - .003" acrylic. No auditor will say a word if you are doing this much control. Unless its NASA I suppose..... we've never had a problem with any of the avionics guys doing this tho

NASA won't allow a pure tin finish in space. Any part with a pure tin finish must be recoated.

Usually the print specifies the material since the design is qualified with it in place. I've used several from Scotchweld 2216, Scotchweld DP190, Hysol E-20HP, to NASA outgassing qualified Masterbond 10HT.

Toyota was looked at because of the problems they had, I was led to believe that the outcome was determined to be the petal size and location. If other auto manufacturers equipment was looked at I wonder if tin wiskering would be found? I think Toy
