Selective matte tin plating

We have a completed electronic assembly and need to selectively matte tin plate the bottom surface (8 inches x 6 inches) only, i.e. we cannot immerse the complete assembly in solution. Is there a technology available to selectively tin plate specific areas?

Hi, Bill. Brush plating may be the best answer, but it may also be possible to partially immerse your assembly in solution; it's not widely done, but most people have seen Revereware.
