| I have gold fingers that I want to mask when running over the wave without pallets. They're on the leading edge of the board. I recall seeing rubber boots that slid onto the fingers to mask them. Pop 'em on before the wave; pop' em off after and

I'm surprised there hasn't been a response to this. This technique has been around for some time, as it was used early on for memory boards and the like. The pins come on a reel with a carrier strip or strips. Machines are available from the manufact
