Hey Edmund Scientific people!!! how about send a free bottle to me (who started this idea) and another to Alan (who is actually announcing your product)??? :) 2 to 5 sq ft, you can paint 500 chips per sq ft... so the worst case cost to vis ually protect a chip is only 1.9 cent... not bad... some component company could start to use it at the production level, so it would be a nice market attractive competition factor , uh?
