Hello all,

Baking boards before SMT assembly  is very common.
Is there a difference between "baking and then storing the board for 6
months" and "storing the board for 6 months and then baking before
assembly" ?
Does the IMC grow faster on boards with ImSn finish after baking?
I'm especially talking about ImSn but I'm also interested in the effect
of baking on other finishes like ImAg and Enig.

Storage would be in a dry shield bag with silicagel or a dry cabinet.

Any suggestions are welcome.
