Ok, How many of you (board fab vendors) are using Kester 5631-C2 Protecto as OSP coating for pcb? I read Kester OSP technical spec. 10 times comparing with Entek Plus 106A. It appears that applying Kester OSP as a final board finish is much simpler and easier. That makes me believe that any board assembly shop can setup a couple of dip tanks and apply the OSP coating with a min cost and training. Or am I being misled by the spec? Your inputs are very much appreciated.
