Why not use plated-through hole technology to print a circuit?

2013-08-17 by theminde@btinternet.com

Hello group.

When manufacturers of boards plate through the holes they use some kind of special fluid solution, this attracts copper thus the hole is plated in copper.

So I was wondering if it is possible to use the same solution to print the actual pattern, afterwards transferring copper (sulphate?) to build up the tracks.

Regards
