you either need holes in the shield or do it twice (put on shield  
after...).  (or get a grid type of open shield and put top cap  
(mechanical snap on) after... or just metallized tape of some sort...  
IMHO.  (one of the new designer goes wild thing?   been there... it  
is one of those you can  make it at lab bench using slow ramp, but  
hard for the production oven - vib plus fast ramp on panel format).   
best of luck.
