I have several thoughts on this. I mill my boards, so the simplest thing would probably for me to do it the same as the video. I'm pretty sure I can find something to coat the board, perhaps laminating plastic (?), then drill the holes, squeegee on the paste. I would then probably blow out the holes rather than vacuum them out. To save on the paste, I might put it in a syringe and pack each hole individually, then refrigerate the remaining paste. Obviously there is some experimentation to be done. Since LPKF is selling the stuff, I assume it actually works and they list the conductivity. I'm a bit nervous about the CW2400 because I haven't found anyone who actually has used it and demonstrated that it actually works and has low conductivity.
