Ben,
It might be the brushes themselves.  Many brushes are shipped with a mild 
wax on the bristles to help them keep the shape during shipping.  We 
always require our operators to solvent clean the bristles on new brushes 
before their first use.

Lee,

Our preferred method of application is automated spray, we are just 
performing some initial testing with brush application.

Do you expect that I'll see a dramatic difference between the two 
applications? I typically do with a solvent based coating, since the spray 
process results in the loss of solvents, but with this material I'm not 
sure that there will be much change.

Ben

Hi Phil

Is this going to be your preferred application method or are you just 
evaluating it with the brush for initial trials?

Best Regards

Lee, Phil,

I typically use urethane coating, so I am used to something that thickens 
up during application, so this is certainly different than what I am used 
to.

What I've tried so far is hand application using a brush, and I see the 
dewetting happening on vertical lead areas, like the legs of gull-wings. 
And it's happening almost right away, before I go to cure.

I'm using some dummy test boards, but they've been through an in-line 
cleaner (Kyzen A4625) post soldering, and a hand clean with IPA just prior 
to coating.

Ben

Hi Ben,

How are you applying the material and what components are you seeing this 
on? 

There are some application tricks to the trade to minimize this 
phenomenon.... You can contact me offline if you'd like to discuss this 
further.

Otherwise, I'd recommend you speak to  both Matt Eveline at HumiSeal and 
Jon Urquhart at PVA, both great resources to get you going in the right 
direction.

Best Regards,

Phil
