What is the difference between sensor gl5516 and gl5506?

I am thinking which type of light dependent resistor photoresistor LDR is better. gl5516 or 5506 sensor? Can anyone brief the main difference?

The GL5506 has a significantly lower resistance for a given amount of light compared to the GL5516 AND, in dark conditions, the resistance of the GL5516 is significantly higher in resistance (as you would expect).

How can I handle missing solder mask opening on PCB footprint?

I have three through-hole PCBs that are missing front and back solder mask openings for two of the components. The solder mask (usually green) is covering the front and back solder pads. All other pads for all other parts are exposed. Is there a good way to remove the solder mask so that I can solder the components to the board?
