PROCEDURE – LOCAL SPOT REMOVAL
1. Apply Polyimide tape to outline the area where the coating needs to be removed.
(See Figure 1.)
2. Dip the end of a foam swab in stripping solution and apply a small amount to the
area of coating to be removed. (See Figure 2.)
As an alternative, a small cotton patch can be cut to the size of the area masked
(see Figure 1), saturated with the stripping solution, and pressed into intimate
contact with the surface of the coating to be removed. The patch will retard the
evaporation of certain solvents and reduce exposure time.
NOTE
Since various substances may be used as coatings, the time required for a given
coating to dissolve or soften will vary. Reapply solvent several times as most sol-
vents evaporate rapidly.
3. Rub the treated surface carefully with a brush or wood stick to dislodge the coat-
ing. A wedge shaped applicator tip, knife, or heated blade may be effective in
removing some coatings, particularly polyurethanes.
4. Neutralize or clean the stripped area and dry.
PROCEDURE – OVERALL REMOVAL
1. A single step for removal of all the coating may be completed by providing a con-
tinuous flow of solvent.
Alternately, process the board in a series of tanks containing mild solvent, start-
ing with a high contamination tank and progressing sequentially to a final, fresh
solvent tank.
EVALUATION
1. Visual examination or UV light may be used to verify complete removal of coating.

OUTLINE
This peeling removal method for coating can be used only under special circum-
stances. Normally this method is used to remove RTV silicone or other thick rubbery-
like coating materials.
The coating material is removed using a dull knife or otherwise dull blade to slit the
coating material and to peel it off the printed board or printed board assembly.
To determine the appropriate coating removal procedure the coating must first be
identified. Refer to procedure number 2.3.1.
NOTE
This method is limited to coatings that are rubbery in nature to allow the coating
material to be slit into small sections and peeled off the printed board assembly.

PROCEDURE
1. Slit and peel off the coating material with a dull knife or heated dull blade. (See
Figure 1.)
2. Repeat as needed until the required material is removed.
