According to the M2 Pro installation guides on their website it says that the ground pads are covered in lacquer. I'm assuming these are just the pads labeled with GND.

Are there any other points that have lacquer that need to be scraped off?

Do I just use a knife to scrape off the lacquer and how much effort do I need to remove the lacquer.

Also, I'm aware that solder paste will remove lacquer, but I'm not planning on using it.

Thanks.
