Dear All, can anyone kindly quote me any specific standards which relate to either the degree of cure of solder resists (I know of a BS standard which uses 3 different solvent rubs but can't remember the number..) or, which relate to the compatibility of the resist with coating strippers ?? As I am not an expert in solder resists but generally I thought they were epoxy based and if cured properly, pretty resistant to even the likes of Methylene Chloride ?
