Somewhere in the IPC PWB standards, there are cleanliness levels listed
for the different types of PWBs. I think it is listed in 6012, but I am
not sure. But I know I have seen the spec. and there are different
levels of ionic cleanliness required for different surface finishes.

Hi Chris,
The short answer to your question is yes. I would expect (typically)
HASL boards to be "dirtier" than ENIG boards.
