If you're going through the trouble of removing all the potting material you might as well solder all the joints too. I used black Plasti-Dip to reseal mine, you could use liquid electrical tape too.

I did mine using dental picks, and a thin blade screw driver. However, instead of heat, I did mine while the board was cold and the backing easily flaked off. There was no need for carb cleaner. Discovered it by accident as I started working on it during winter in a non heated garage. --- bill |

i got a chance at work to strip mine. it flaked off fairly easily. i would use a little heat the using a pick,would pop pieces out.
next a thorough cleaning. i plan on using a bit of liquid flux the help the solder to flow. once all continuity is double checked, i plan on clear silicon for a cover. will try and post a few progress pictures later. Roobin (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer3.gif) |

I think a putty knife on the back of the relay board would tear up more stuff than you can fix!!!!!
