Barry,
     
     What process problem are they trying to solve?  This sounds strange 
     that a change to matte would solve any soldermask processing issues?  
     It might cover them up so you do not see them!
     
     Caution!

Greetings!
     
We are relatively new to the SMT assembly business.  Our 
vendor wants to switch from a glossy to a matte surface 
soldermask to eliminate a process problem on their end.  
Are there any issues we need to consider? I seem to recall 
a discussion about solder balls hating matte finish.
     
Thanks
