Factors ranging from salt-mist corrosion in coastal regions and coating embrittlement caused by temperature fluctuations to the very cleanliness of the board prior to application can all impact protective efficacy. This article shares my firsthand experiences across various scenarios\u2014including how to select the appropriate PCB coating based on the operating environment\u2014and highlights those critical details that are often overlooked.
