Here is a fabrication note I worked up with the fab shop.

"All vias drilled equal to or less than .0xx shall be plated, then
filled with non conductive material, such as Peter's paste # SD-2361,
or equivalent. Surface to be planar prior to final plating and
metallization.
Boards must be suitable for via in pad technology."

I would recommend working with your fabricators to find the best solution
to your requirement. Without mentioning names, Most large fab houses can
handle
this either internally or through subcontractors.


.028 is pretty big these days to fill. (?)

Most prefer to flood the entire board, rather than be selective.


Hope this helps,

Dave
