Hi Cory, As a manufacturer of aqueous cleaning systems, my advise is somewhat biased, however I believe it to be accurate. We have hundreds of customers who have implemented no-clean programs. The programs have been successful when measuring the r

I've been involved with no-clean flux and conformal coat in the past.It has been my experience that the amount of no-clean flux used is proportionate to how well the conformal coat adheres to the boards.No clean paste did not affect adhesion. The co

Sure you can do it!!! Just so that I'm clear on your inquiry, the pattern you're talking about is what? * Foot print of the copper pads * Glue pattern for printing your adhesive
