Thanks Lee. I have admit that at numerous times I have tried to convince myself that abrasion is a good solution, but actual results have always convinced me otherwise. Still do not feel comfortable letting an operator loose with such a tool in one hand and a PCA in the other, No matter how many controls or poke yokes I put into place.

Something like Crystalmark's systems? is it a large area or a small area to repair? Since it is Uv40 it does solder through easily and does not char or burn. it just melts. Chemical strippers for UV40 have to be viewed with a lot of caution as they are highly aggressive to everything around it. Also, you have to ensure you remove it all or confirm the residues are harmless (very unlikely).

Thought I had resolved this some years ago, but now with the obsolescence of some strippers and increase in the various UV coatings we apply, I need to address this again. I can readily see that some UV coatings are much easier to strip that others. > > What type of chemical strippers do you guys use (both local & full)? > > Thanks > > Rich Kraszewski /PLEXUS > > > ______________________________________________________________________ > This email has been scanned by the Symantec Email Security.cloud service. > For more information please contact helpdesk at x2960 or [log in to unmask] > ______________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________ This email has been scanned by the Symantec Email Security.cloud service.
