I also have all of the datasheets and MSDS for the three products. Very clear their instructions, but must be followed whithout change a bit of them. And for soldermaks and ink legend, you must have an air-forced oven, or the PCB surface does not conform to the quality stated.

Whatever information I can get. Is it easy to use? What method of
application do you use? Shelf life? Things to look out for? Is it as
good as it sounds? I have an old Blue M oven from when I had a
business, so it looks like I have a start on it. I was at first
thinking of going with spin coating then decided that it would be
easier to make a dip system
