Pump for Shipley Microposit Developer Concentrate is not working (see
Phill's report). This is the chemical used to do the final PR strip
after etching chrome mask. You can still use Prog. #90 (Develop),
#91 (Etch), #92 (to expose PR using lamp), however you must hand strip
the PR after #92. This can be accomplished by using a petrie dish full
of Shipley Microposit Developer Concentrate and simply immersing the
plate in this solution for about 30 seconds. You can then use the apt
to rinse and spin dry your plate by skipping through steps 1, 2, and
3 in Prog.#92.
