Default Yellow Glue strikes again


"Jeff Liebermann"

** I've always wanted to know just WFT it really is !!


This description seems to fit:

http://www.alibaba.com/product-gs/482344777/One_component_solvent_resistant_flame_retardant.ht ml

"One component solvent resistant flame-retardant waterproof yellow
fixing adhesive glue for electronic components"

Note the photos. Is that it?



** Sure as heck looks like the vile stuff.

But the stuff has been in use for decades, firstly with Taiwanese made gear.

The specs quoted do not mention aging or the effects of temperature - so the
marketing is dishonest.

BTW:

the pics show the glue in its liquid state, when dry the surface is quite
dull.

To me, the pics are cringe worthy.

Like looking at pics of child abuse.
