Title: protective coating on circuit boards Post by: jbshocks on March 03, 2012, 03:52:02 PM I am working on a bally pinball board that had a battery leak. I have cleaned up the corrosion but there is a lot of the green protective coating gone. What is usually done in this case? Leave it alone or coat it with something. If coating what kind?
Thanks Jerry Title: Re: protective coating on circuit boards Post by: stayouttadabunker on March 03, 2012, 04:15:04 PM Buzz uses fingernail polish... :72- It works!

Helps hold down jumper wires for replacing bad traces, too. And if you get bored you can get high. Just kidding.
