5uin. Your nickel thickness is fine. Although if you wanted to trade costs, consider giving-up nickel to 150uin thickness, while increasing the gold thickness. Gold over electroless nickel creates brittle joints because of phosphorous in the nicke

Yes pads are still gold after the wave soldering process even if you wave solder a pcb several times. I have tried soldering using an iron and the solder takes to the pad as you would expect. This happens on all boards of this type and all boards are

Hi, I think your friend wrongly changed the D code so that the finger width doesn't meet your requirements. And the fingers have long and short ones, which is hard to do selective gold plating because of not easy to add plating wires. Of course, you
