If I want that "extra touch" for homebrew PCB's (say, something
used for a presentation) I'll use model candy spray paint (Testors).
Candy green looks just like a screened resist, and solder burns
through it just as readily as anything else. Candy blue and red
also look great. Otherwise for "production" I usually use $1.99
clear enamel.
