Technet, What's the best method to solder fill 0.052" PTHs on a single sided SMT pcb assembly? There are several of them on the board and some will be covered by the body of large SMT inductors with no standoff. There is no solder mask on the bottom side and I would not want to create additional wave process. And on the open PTHs with this size, will stencil printing create any paste "drooping" through the bottom side?
