Richard,
If you intend to do power on testing of populated boards you must consider the type of coating (primarily the glass transition temperature) and coating coverage of leads with 90 degree edges plus under components, and pointed ends.

If your product is going to be used in a condensation type environment I strongly recommend you hermetically seal it. Remember water molecules are one of the smallest! What could occur is dendritic growth and intermittent shorts (worst case)!
