Hi Technetters,

A number of our customers are starting to request more conformal coating of
the PCBA's we assemble for them, and I have been given the task of
evaluating various materials and equipment for doing this in-house rather
than outsourcing it.  Specifically, I looking for any help or pointers I can
get on sources of equipment, specific types (SR, etc) I should consider,
environmental and health concerns and regulations, etc.  Spraying appears to
be our best application method at this point.  Any comments on building a
spray booth vs. purchasing a unit from one of the vendors supplying these
would also be appreciated.

Thanks in advance for any tips you might provide.

Regards,

Rick Thompson
