How do you apply conformal coating to a printer circuit board (PCB)?
Prepare the PCB: Ensure the PCB is clean, dry, and free from any contaminants. Clean it using an appropriate PCB cleaning solution or isopropyl alcohol to remove any dirt, flux residues, or other impurities that could interfere with the coating...

Does conformal coating protect against ESD (static)?
While conformal coatings can offer some level of protection against ESD by providing a barrier between the sensitive electronic components and the surrounding environment, they are not specifically designed as ESD control measures.

What is in "canned air" duster?
Dusters used compressed propellant that when released, spray out with enough force to dislodge dust and other loose contaminents. When these contaminants get in the way of vents or fans within the device, they create a build-up which leads to...

Does your "canned air" duster contain bitterant additive?
None of our dusters contain bitterant. Many consumer dusters include bitterant to prevent "huffing". That bitterant can be left behind as a residue, so should be avoided when cleaning sensitive or critical devices.
