Silicone-based coatings "repel" most foreign,non-compatible materials like peelable solder mask, and rubber or vinyl boots. The result is, uncured material around the vicinity of where the boot was. Trust me. Been there and done that. As a rookie

Mike First, you MUST make sure the oven used is extracted. The coating will contain TDI. This is not nice. You would be better considering a silicone solventless. Try contacting HumiSeal. They had a material on the TAC line at Nepcon West that lo

You might want to check int using a BGA underfill material prior to coating.
