Hi Don, some time ago I had a discussion about this topic at a conference. The guy I was talking to had good experience with multiple Omnicoat coating steps, perhaps 3 or 4 layers. I never tried it myself, though.

We don't do electroplating, but the 200 deg cured SU-8, 10 um thick, does not release from the OmniCoat. We tried warm NanoRemover PG in ultrasonic bath for several hours. The OmniCoat layer is 20-30 nm thick using MicroChem recommended spin process. We thick this is too thin. What methods will spin coat thicker layers of OmniCoat? What process would increase OmniCoat viscosity? Don Friedrich
