you paint it before installing the parts and the paint burns off the tracks when soldering quite easy.

I used lacquer for furniture. Few hundred of devices are working under near open sky for 6 years.
Try few lacquers and find suitable one.

Hello,

I use thick furniture lacquer. Cheap and good. A small can will last very long.

Usually comes in a metal can. Close it tight.

Bye.

the Plastik 70 from Kontakt Chemie is used in company products.

Acrylic lacquers

Lacquers using acrylic resin, a synthetic polymer, were developed in the 1950s. Acrylic resin is colourless, transparent thermoplastic, obtained by the polymerization of derivatives of acrylic acid. Acrylic is also used in enamels, which have the advantage of not needing to be buffed to obtain a shine. Enamels, however, are slow drying. The advantage of acrylic lacquers, which was recognized by General Motors, is an exceptionally fast drying time. The use of lacquers in automobile finishes was discontinued when tougher, more durable, weather and chemical resistant two-component polyurethane coatings were developed. The system usually consists of a primer, colour coat and clear topcoat, commonly known as clear coat finishes. It is extensively used for wooden finishing

you can use the spray lacquers from DIY home finish store, lots of them to choose. all works well.  the Acrylic lacquers for furnitures are cheap and good.

I think they want to protect the copper layers from oxidation after etching.
(prevent air to reach the copper surface)

To do that a thin coat of paint from a spray can is enough. I've used liquid plastic in high voltage circuits.

I have very good results protecting the copper from oxidation by using the special compound used in copper pipe soldering.

It is a grey paste, you have to paint it with the included brush over the whole PCB and then put it with the compound upside so the not painted side sits on a flipped over hot iron and leave it there until the paste gets dry, 3-5 minutes. Wash with water and sponge and dry it out.

The PCB will be nicely covered with solder, looking great and ready to put SMD's on it.

You should apply the laquer  after you solder all the parts.  most of the laquer is  not a good solder mask, it will melt if you put the solder on it, also  if you put the solder on it to solder the parts. it might have bad contacts, the melting gas is bad  for your health too.

Do you mean solder mask? If so, I heard that some people used photoresist spray with thermohardening (150 C) for this purpose at home.
