Yes, I have used it in the past. It does a good enough job. The purpose of
the tin plating is to keep the copper from turning green.
The PCB houses in the 60's used this process before plated through hole. Now
they use SQUEEGY SOLDER. You can do your own squeegee solder if you want to.
The last boards I built were small so I just solder coated all the traces.
