Thanks Phil. However, my objective is to identify stencils that are not 100% clean prior to sending to inventory. I want to catch it before the solder paste has a chance to dry and harden in the apertures. Kerry

Your problem is not the 0.4 pitch. Your problem is the manual cleaning. Manual cleaning will only remove the solder paste from the surface of the stencil. What's more, manual cleaning will force additional contamination into the 0.4 pitch apertures

We do like Chunks says only a little bit different. Our stencil supplier e-mails us a "confirmation PDF" before processing any order. If it's a simple board, I just make sure all the apertures are there by comparing to board. If it's got a ton of
