Hello,

I wish to pot a small automotive module for which I am assembling 
very small volume.
I used what was on hand, a fibreglass polyester resin, for my first 
prototype without
incident.

Can anybody comment on the appropriateness of continuing to use such 
resin as while
this is somewhat of a backyard exercise for some ignition modules, 
for which I found the
resin readily available and cheap, I am keen to pursue reliability. I 
have no knowledge of
whether such a resin has any negative influence on electronic 
components, FR4 board
and PVC wires. The alternative Dow corning materials seem rather expensive.

Cheers, Colin
