Title: Matte soldermask
Post by: Alex on October 12, 2018, 12:27:20 pm

I am looking for a hobbyist manufacturer (seeed/itead etc) that offers matte white or black soldermask in a pool service.
Has anyone spotted one?

Cheers,
Alex

Pool service? Like multiple people's designs on a single panel?

AllPCB has Matte Green or Matte Black.

Thanks, yes that's what I meant; it tends to be a lot cheaper.
I see the allpcb option, 50-off 2L just under 10x10 cm for $90 shipped. Not too bad.

I kind of have a matte solder mask fetish :o so I've looked around a bit. AllPCB seemed like the best option to me. Though, I'm sure depends on board size, quantity, etc..
