Doug: I knew a facility that did use Cascade dishwashing detergent in their post hot air leveling cleaning equipment. The boards turned out looking clean and nice and shinny, however, the surface insulation resistance dropped greater than four decades as tested on a Bellcore type test comb. Commercial products can be used but you had better know what residues are being left on your boards and know how they will affect the reliability of your product. ______________________________ Reply Separator _________________________________ Subject: Re: Assy: conformal coating Author: [log in to unmask] at INET Date: 9/25/96 11:31 AM No more confused than those who want to use Tarn-X for Copper as a flux (don't laugh, I've been asked), or Cascade dishwashing detergent for a saponifier. It is sometimes frightening, the number of manufacturers who want to use Walmart as their materials supplier.
