I need to spin coat PDMS for obtaining thin films of about 1 micron. I'm using Nusil CF19-2186. Do someone have info about which solvent, solent ratio, substrate, spin coater speed, etc.?

Like the previous posting, I am trying to spin on PDMS thickness of <1um. We're using GE RTV615 and toluene as solvent. Could anybody suggest a solvent ratio and spin speed (was there an answer posted to this question previously?). Thank you kindly.
