Obviously both the colour correction and IR filters will be removed from the camera body - ending up with a FULL full spectral modded mono CCD.
Yes, I know bayer matrix filter is "printed" on the chip..
In the past I was engraving various markings on the transistor chips using microscope, sharp needle and free hand.. I was always intrigued by how actually soft the metal deposits are and how easy it is to damage them.. and also how easy it is to control the hand movements if they are controlled by visual feedback (by watching what's going on under the microscope).

That is why I appreciate Alistair's effort and success so much.
Very brave! And successful.

Now, maybe there is a way to remove the matrix by some chemical process? Not likely..
