I don't know how bad it is, or whether you are talking about a hard PC board or what used to be called "flexprint". Is this a flexible printed circuit? In any case, there is a product called "Nickel Print", made by GC Electronics, which will allow you to draw conductive lines. A 2 oz botle is about 20 bucks, but if it works, it can save you a lot. It's available at, no B as in B, S as in S, "Acme" Electronics, in Golden Valley MN. Should be around elsewhere. tom
