Hi, I'm searching to understand what is the goop that HAD used for cover its amp-board. It's a type of silicon?
Thanks

From these I've seen is kind of epoxy shit in most of the cases. Biatch to remove, stinks awfully when you heat it up with soldering iron - the only way to get it off sadly

Permatex blue RTV and black silcone sealant.

Denatured alcohol will breakdown blue permatex rtv. you can also take a heat gun set to low, heat the goop wad up and in most instances it can pop off as a single unit with the correct amount of heat applied or in chunks.

The black stuff removes easily with the same method..

About 2 months ago I degooped some dead "boutique" pedals for a friend to repair them,I popped off the bottom, and pointed the heat gun straight up and let the goop/heat/gravity combo work, the results were pretty good, was able to get the pedal working and discover its big secret was a TL072 opamp....

F****NG Goop....

the best sounding goop is brown goop!
