WE REPAIR OUR BOARDS USING BOTH THE SUGGESTED METHODS. BOTH ARE
ACCEPTABLE.
SOLDER METHOD
AS LONG AS YOU CLEAN THE EXPOSED COPPER AREA, AND APPLY FLUX AND
USE ONLY ENOUGH HEAT TO FLOW
THE SOLDER, THEN THERE WILL NOT BE A PROBLEM WITH THE HEATING OF
THE COPPER OR BOARD.
CAN YOU USE A LOWER MELTING POINT SOLDER FOR THIS
APPLICATION ?
ADDING RESIST
CAN YOU ADD A COLOUR PIGMENT TO MATCH AS CLOSE AS POSIBLE THE
COLOUR OF YOUR RESIST ?
MIX UP SOME SAMPLES, AS IT DOES DRY A SLIGHTLTY DIFFERENT COLOUR.
ASSUMING THAT THE PROBLEM IN THE FIRST PLACE IS ACCEPTABLE, THEN
DOING EITHER OPTION IS ONLY A COSMETIC ISSUE .
