Richard,

Shame on you alarming all us law abiding citizens trying to do the right
thing. This really couldn't happen, wouldn't really happen, could it ;-)

Make a nice day,

KennyB

Also, even with a high-power spray wash, you may not get all of the
leaded solder paste out of the stencil apertures. If some of the solder
paste fines remain in the apertures, you may get enough lead in a single
solder joint to fail an audit by the RoHS police. Your product would
then be the subject of investigative reporters such as Geraldo Rivera.
You will appear on the Jerry Springer show desperately trying to prove
that the assembly was fathered by someone else, and you were being
framed. After conviction in the EU court system, you can appear on
Oprah, in the category "This Happened to Me". 
Buy another stencil. I suppose by now someone has thought of
manufacturing green "RoHS Compliant" stencils that cost twice as much as
the original. Make sure the stencil is not made of non-homogenized
hexavalent chromium alloys, or finished using polynylated
hyperglycerides or un-neutered cadmiatic acids. 

The RoHS police are keeping a close eye on you.

Good luck.
