I don't know. What does your paste supplier say? You can run tests * That you used to qualify this paste in the first place. * According to IPC J-STD-005A Requirements for Soldering Pastes * Using your toughest stencil to print this paste on a bare c

If you get a response to this, I might have a need to look into something similar. Though, I don't need adhesive..I need something more like kapton or masking dots. I am working on a new job that requires conformal coating, and LEDs that need to be

Are there any tricks to cleaning a stepped stencil while in use. There seems to always be paste left behind around the recesses of the stencil. We have tried many different wipe combinations and don't seem to be having much luck with it. The machi
