Hello,
I must get some conformal coating to prepare some circuits that will be exposed to some salt-bearing water. (Not directly, but they will be around some water and could get tiny drops by accident.)
I noticed that Digi-Key does not seem to carry conformal coating - is this true? Newark has some but seem to have long lead times on them all. Mouser seems to have some.
Also I noticed three types. There is silicone, urethane, and acrylic. Which do you use and why?
I probably want the silicone because I guess it's better for moisture, but what are the reasons one would use the others?
And where do you buy yours?
Thanks!
