As i wrote before, we usually use "Plastik 70" and "Urethan 71" for the
stuff that does not need high specs. For those that are under water and/or
more aggresive stuff (like body fluids) we use parylene.
The down side is that it costs money (it needs a manual step) and it makes
reworks more difficult as you have to ensure that after the rework the
coating is made watertight again (which isn't as easy as it looks).
Oh.. and connectors are really a pain with any coating. Either you
coat them as well and lose the connectivity or you have a point where
water can creep under the coating.
