You might want to look into using the so-called "missing atom channel" in BUSTER, which allows the scaling to use three components (current model, bulk solvent and missing atoms). The current version of BUSTER makes it easy to define such a uniform prior (see 'refine -M list'): please let me know (maybe off-list) if you want some pointers/help with this.
