 This instruction is about how to apply solder mask to PCBs. It is assumes you already have traces on a PCB (regardless of etched or milled) but **no holes yet**, like <imgref etchedpcb>​. This instruction is about how to apply solder mask to PCBs.

-You also need [[pcbuvmasks|artwork]] (black printout to transparent foil) containing only pads (EAGLE layer 17and vias (layer ​18). Make sure it is really dark. We also suggest filling out the holes (you can use a black marker, e.g. [[https://​www.amazon.de/​gp/​product/​B01MTT2R3Q/​ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00?​ie=UTF8&​psc=1|this one]] or [[https://​www.amazon.de/​gp/​product/​B0009LZULO/​ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o06_s00?​ie=UTF8&​psc=1|that one]]). The room you are working in has to been protected from of UV lights, e.g. use 05 EG 027. It has special lamps and no windows (avoiding sunlight).+You also need [[pcbuvmasks|artwork]] (black printout to transparent foil) containing only pads and vias. You can achieve this by selecting "​tStop" ​(layer ​29or "​bStop" ​(layer ​30for top and bottom respectively. Make sure to select a solid fillstyle ​(see <imgref layer29>).
