A water soluble mask is formed on a substrate. Thereafter, a coating (e.g., low-E coating) is formed on the substrate in at least one select area over the mask and in at least one area where the mask is not provided. After the coating has been formed, water is used to remove the mask and a portion of the coating formed thereon in order to form a partially coated substrate. The technique may be used in applications such as in the making of vehicle windshields, or the like.
