RE: [motm] Pass through holes?

Scott,  Why no clean?  I have soldered all of my vias just prior to the last
board wash and used washable flux.

  Solder-fill all the vias (pass-though holes) with the "no-clean" solder.
Don't use the washable flux solder for this.

  Vias are such a freaking nightmare; they are the cause of more
motherboard failures than anything else.  Board makers that allow the
soldermask to flow over over unsoldered vias are just asking for trouble.
