I use to use silver laced conductive paint to repair inductive grids on
CalComp digitizers. It could also be used to bridge the traces on PCB's if
you find a hairline crack and soldier would not be feasible. Obviously you
will want to scrape off the coating where you wish to apply the paint not
forgetting to you a sharp edged device like an x-acto blade to apply it.
