Homebrew PCBs

Thanks James,

I should not be posting/asking obvious questions when I am very sleepy: It
is about 4 in the morning.

 

Silk screening might work for your application without using a mask.  Just
squeeze it through the screen with a squeegee as is normally done and lift
off the screen for a uniform coat.

Same as for photoresist methods, print pads image onto tracing 
paper/transparency, overlay on painted board (which is covered by 
polyethylene plastic since the paint is "wet"), expose to UV for a few 
minutes, remove plastic, wipe away the remaining unexposed ink from the 
pads.
