There are several spots where it is critical that the chassis make 
contact with either other half of the chassis or to the circuit board, 
or to connectors mounted to the chassis. Of course we must remove mask 
if it is there, but if the fabricator/painter goofed and forgot the tape 
at a location, it IS important to sand or scrape away the paint.
