PANEL PREPARATION
Sufficient adhesion, necessary in the subsequent etching and electolytic processes can only be ensured if the
panel material surface is absolutely free of grease and oxides as well as any moisture or traces left by
mechanical/chemical cleaning. This cleaning may be carried out by hand or machine with suitable advice from
the supplier of DRY FILM.
The waiting periods before panel preparation and lamination should not exceed 60 minutes, otherwise there is
a chance that the metal surface may become oxidised and cause loss of adhesion. After laminating, the panels
must be allowed to stand at room temperature for 20 minutes before exposure to ensure the cure of the dry
film emulsion.
STORAGE
The resists of most manufacturers require that the dry films be stored preferably in a dark room at a
temperature of less than 26 degrees centigrade but preferably between 15 – 20 degrees centigrade and at a
relative humidity of 40% - 60 % to ensure full shelf life. Always lay the film box flat never on the end as this
will cause film problems and keep spare or extra rolls of film inside the black plastic bags supplied with the
film and inside the film box in storage.
