I'm removing the tar off the relay board. I'm finding areas which look like a soldering iron touched and melted the plastic. I don't know if this was used to tack down some of the traces or something else. One area looks like someone laid down a soldering tip.

Was this normal or something else?

Thanks,

I took my relay board off to clean it and discovered the underside was cracked like the Nevada salt flats.
So, I ordered some of this stuff to give it a good reseal:

I took the easy route and bought a refurbed board from BDStone, pretty sure he uses black Flexseal and it's really nice.
