Bob,
That is odd. I can't really help, but for reference we use SL5410
(similar chemistry I'm sure) and have had no problems with
platinum-based silicones such as T-4 or Axson 240. We paint our parts
as a rule, but have used SL5410 uncoated with both silicones with good
results.
Perhaps it is your finishing chemicals (we use TPM) or maybe the parts
are not fully cured and are off-gassing (time to change the PCA bulbs?).
Have you tried painting them first?
