Printed
circuit
boards have
been coated with
epocast
(a
polyurethane
resin)
to inhibit
fungus
growth and
moisture
absorption.
When
soldering to a printed
circuit
land,
the
heat
from
the soldering iron
decom-
poses the epocast
resin,
leaving
a
charred
residue.
Upon
completion of
soldering,
this
residue
should be
removed
with
a solvent,
such
as toluol.
CAUTION!
The
following precautions
should be adhered
to
when
using
toluol:
Avoid
inhaling the vapors,
avoid
excessive
contact with the
skin,
and
keep
away
from open
flames.
Ensure
that
plastic
components
do not
come
into
contact with
toluol,
since
it
will
dissolve
most
types of
plastic.
d.
After
removal of
the
epocast
residue,
the affected
area
should be
recoated
with
a sealant.
