Check out CCR at http://www.ccrco.com, they have an ESD safe microblast
removal chamber and a nifty conformal coating system that doesn't require
component masking.

the people at crystal mark have a lot of data about this.  also a don larson
at mcclellan air force base, sacramento, ca (not canada).  if you bring up
the following thomas register url, you will get the address and telephone

Hi, all

Are there any literature, standard, industry guidelines/specifications done
on the
effects of rework and conformal coating removal on ESD?

Any information is appreciated.
