In the aerospace industry, we use conformal coatings. On one of the
jobs I did, Humiseal was used.
It was a spray can of an acrylic formulation that could be removed with
acetone if rework is needed.
This is desirable because the others are not removable

Of note is that in NASA video #10, it indicates that tin whiskers were
found that were up to 1.8cm long (7/10th inch)...a long way from a
few mils recently cited.
