Hey Jack: It's certainly "do-able." Conformal coating adhesion testing was done as part of the "Evaluation of Low Residue Soldering for Military and Commercial Applications: A Report from the Low Residue Soldering Task Force," published by Sandia Na

Which companies would you consider for protective coatings, (conformal coating) and other levels of protection? I am taking a fresh look at alternatives. Know any good tests for testing compatability of coating with flux - aqueous or no clean? SMT

If I am not mistaken you can buy Spray cans of Conformal Coating. For the small batch in the environment you are describing, that might be the ticket. A bit pricey material wise, but clean up is a cinch. A little masking tape, and spray away!

We currently use both Humiseal and Conap with OA flux. The flux MUST me cleaned off the assembly before coating. I know that Humiseal has coatings that are compatiable with no cleans as long as your processes are defined properly before your coating

Hi BJ, Everyone's favourite answer...it depends! If the volume if large, masking boots will save you both, time and money in the long run. Custom boots are relatively expensive to buy, but they pay themselves over time by savings on masking tape. ma

Hi, I am running a circuit board that needs a part to be put on it after cleaning and before conformal coating. the only problem is that after cleaning and hand assembly of the part, there is a thin whitish residue in the ckt board that one can see w

my 2 cents here --- Even though the boards need not be cleaned after SMT when using no clean flux, you will still have to clean them before conformal coating.....and most solvents used to clean boards before coating will take out the no clean flux re

Hi Amol, We use the PVA system and also conformal coat over no-clean reflow solder as well as no-clean wave. We use a Humiseal coating and thinner.

Hi Tim, I would speak to your guys at Indium, as I am sure they have a paste developed primarily for Conformally Coated products which should alleviate your problems. John

Please wash the PCB`s before conformal coating.Do you use deodrant before or after you shower??????
