I realize a solder mask can do that.  But didn't see the your tube producer mention that the board was etched first, then was treated with the solder mask.  I may have missed that. 

If I did, I apologize.  

Assuming it is two steps, aligning the etch mask and the solder mask could be a bit challenging, but not impossible with proper alignment marks.

  Hi John,
  don't jump to the conclusions too early.
  Soldermask is as easy as 1-2-3-4:
  Laminate-Expose-Develop-Cure.

  I actually watched the video to the end (after some "liquidish sedative"
  - beer), and the cow-dude explained it quite accurate.
