I am very surprised to hear about your problems with Shipley Electroless
Copper.  I am with Electro Plate Circuitry in Carrollton, Tx.  We
manufacture Military and High-Rel Commercial Multilayers.   We have been
using Shipley # 3350 Electroless Line for the past 7 years.  We have had
great success from a performance and support standpoint.  We have found that
when we do run into a problem, Shipley's tech support is at our facility
within hours and solves the problem in a timely manner.   We have always
found that the problem is a result of something we did or did not do.  Feel
free to give me a call, If I cannot help you,  I can put you in contact with
someone who can. (214)466-0818.

I have also been using the Shipley 3350 electroless copper process for the
last 6 years with very good success. We process primarily multi layer
product 4 layer to 16 layer.  The process yields well with no post
separation and minimal deposition related voiding.  Shipley support is very
good and they can usually solve any problems quickly.

Please call if you would like to discuss this more, I would be happy to talk
with you.
