Nostalgitone pcb plates

[R]

Hi

I purchased 2 plates, the DSOTM and VooDoo redux. I would like to  do some fine detail touches. Can I protect these with:

1: Rust-oleum painter touch 2X semi-gloss clear which has acetone and xylene

or

2: mtn pro indoor protective varnish, matt water based

regards

Randy

I have not personally tested any clear coats on the panels, so I can’t recommend one over the other.

I would suggest testing on a small area first, as acetone can potentially affect the printed silkscreen ink or finish.

I would like to hear your results though.

I did an experiment the other day and sprayed a clear lacquer (Krylon brand) to see what the results would be. Well there were no adverse or any kind of reaction of the PCB to the lacquer or vise versa. Hope this helps.
