Going back to a previous comment Richard made I too would never use immersion tin as a PCB surface finish. My preference still is immersion silver. Now to Julianos comment about a pad disappearing during selective wave soldering. I can't believe a pad disappearing has any thing to do about immersion tin surface finish or selective wave soldering parameters as much as it base to do with poor PCB fabrication. I would cross section a pad before soldering to see what the copper thickness is
