My JVC car stereo with broken PCB traces was making my big double din display flicker. So this old tech attempted to use fine wire and solder but with these new surface mount boards, that proved futile. So I looked around for pcb repair kits and stumbled on this product on Amazon. Had no idea such conductive glue existed. Worth a shot...........
After prepping the board (by widening the spaces between traces with razor blade, scraping off coating, then cleaning with alcohol) and using a good lighted magnifying glass, I carefully applied just enough glue to bridge all 3 broken trace gaps. After letting dry in the sun for a couple hours, installed back in my car and bingo - everything works perfectly and has for several weeks now!
This stuff isn't for the novice, and you have to be careful you don't get glue anywhere else (it comes out of the needle fairly fast with the slightest pressure on the plunger). But, short of buying a replacement board ($80 for my stereo), this is probably your best option. Stuff apparently shipped from China but came in a couple weeks, exceeding my expectations. For a few bucks you can't go wrong.

I was 'rejuvenating' a remote control PC board and accidentally scratched off the conductive path for one of the buttons. I got this to see if it could be fixed, and it worked like a charm. A new conductive trace was made that allows the button to work again. Be careful with the needle end, though - it's sharp.

Do not expect it to flow from syringe with needle. It is too viscous. Explodes and smears work-space and clothes. Cost me a $20 pair of pants. Repair of USB faulty connection still pending. I will let it dry at least 24 hours. I am afraid to blow hot air on it.

Possibly the syringe I received was just older, I don't know. Came sealed in a electrostatic bag but was very hard to dispense from the syringe. Did not adhere to the circuit board like at all. Became powdery when dry, or after a day of sitting on the circuit board. Still smeared across my fingers when touched. Poked myself several times trying to dispense this stuff. Was hoping it would be more like a glue than a caulk. NOT. Took about three weeks to arrive and maybe I should have ordered this in dead of winter, shouldn't be a seasonal item.

Runs like water, doesn't work if you need it to stick to anything, Not sure why they even have the word glue in this ad. Tried laying flat waiting 15 hours and gluing on top of this product but that did not work either. Not worth your time or effort

the needle provided did not work so basically made the whole thing useless because i needed something that would add in a tiny little area. Plus it came for China so expect it to take at least two weeks. My fault on that, i didnt read where the supplier was from.

Makes circuit board repair a snap! Dries quickly, a little goes a long way. Better than soldering wire to complete the pathway. Can be used in UHF connectors, too. Love it!

Was very hard to use, and seems like it didn't want to work.
