Puppet you have been very lucky in not needing to remove the lacquer. I have seen vias on V9's that needed very little removal and others that there was no copper showing at all on the via. Every board has its differences even when they are the same version.

That makes things much easier for me guys, opposed to what I did

Thank you very, very much...
