Re: [Homebrew_PCBs] Patent, storage & other info - Riston & negative dry film photoresists in general

2013-01-14 by Robin Whittle

Addenda:

Jeff Heiss in the "photoresist application" thread mentioned the site
which recommended leaving the polyester sheet in place for a while after
exposure:

  "Note that the dry film resist should be exposed with the cover
   sheets on, and then held in a dark place for 15 minutes before
   removing the cover sheets and developing."

This was from 2005, quoting extensive Riston 4713 instructions by Jon Elson:

I recall reading this instruction somewhere else, but not in DuPont
material.
