So I was curious if anyone's ever used a hydrophobic coating on PC parts for a watercooled build?Since mixing water with electronic components is a bad combination if it gets into the wrong parts. So would it be OK to apply a hydrophobic electronic coating to each of the components inside?doing so would make the components resistant to water should there ever happen to be a leak in the water cooling parts with your deionized water coolant. mixed metals causes the water to ionize itself again. But doesn't or shouldn't if they are all the same metals. But I digress it would make sense to apply a hydrophobic coating to all the PCB parts that could become exposed to liquids, as a precaution for preparing the watercooled system. It is considered safe for modern electronic devices, smartphones usually these days come in a coating of hydrophobic coating to prevent shortages from liquids and moisture getting into the device and frying itself, so it got me wondering about doing a coating inside of a watercooled PC.
