The 'tearing away' is exactly the problem our customer is concerned with
based on their experience. This thing has to go in a bumper car which
has significant impact shock for may hours a day. Unfortunately for us,
the design is a modification of an existing product that doesn't see
this environment. The wire hold downs are a good idea, but we can't use
them is some areas of the board due to the design.

I wondered if anyone was going to caution the group on this fact. I have
seen RTV damage the printed circuit right through solder mask.
The other thing I have observed is that it isn't that good at absorbing
shock. If you hit it hard it can simply tear or worse bounce and
actually return energy to the component.
I think in the context originally described in this thread, used in
conjunction with a wire hold down, it may be okay.
