I know spin coating has been used commercially but it always bothered me
since I do not understand how it can be a uniform coating. Basically there
is zero centrifugal force in the center and lots at the edges. How can that
create a uniform coating?
Decades ago I used to coat PCBs by SLOWLY withdrawing them from a skinny
rectangular tank which left a uniform coating except the bottom edge.
Placing the PCB still vertically on a tissue paper drained off the excess at
the edge.

How fast does it have to spin? The velocity of the outside edge of the
board would be getting quite high I imagine as you increased the board
size.
