Hi,

        Has anyone seen the following?
        Surface contamination on top of electroless copper.
        It prevents plating and subsequent etching.
        It is both under the resist and in exposed areas during pattern plate and
etch.
        It is small on the order of a mil or two, but there can be lots of it.
        It seems to be in streaks, a spattered appearance.

thanks,
Rich
