Silver Conductive Paste, Silver Conductive Paint Wire Glue Paste Silver Paint Pen for Electronics Repair Applications(0.2ml)

I just received this specialty "glue" and have only had time to use it on one simple repair. Let me start by stating my effort to repair the "traces" on the end of a "ribbon cable" was a failure. But I don't believe the glue itself was the reason. As is pretty much the norm, these traces are small, but more importantly, they are very close together. I started by attempting to lay-down new replacement traces in place of the worn ones, but these are so small and narrow that even using the hypodermic-sized dispensing needle I couldn't keep the individual traces from bleeding into each other. I did discover that I could "clear" areas between the intended new trace lines by using a bit of sharpened "peg wood" (look up peg wood for watchmaking). Unfortunately, all it takes is a small slip in clearing these spaces to drag the peg wood across one of the new traces to accidentally remove the last vestiges of the original trace. Doing so breaks the trace once again, putting you right back where you started. If this was a standard ribbon cable you could remove some of the insulation coating and move the new trace further up to reconnect, but this cable is inside a PC mouse, and it gets connected by pushing the cable end into a ribbon connector socket that is narrower than the cable. The cable's end fits because as the traces reach it, they literally are compacted to get thinner and closer together. Long story short: I believe this conductive "glue" is a viable repair product. I can see it working on many of the circuit boards I've worked on (and will be in the future). I did note what could be a problem, but I don't have enough experience with the product yet: When I slipped with the peg wood, dragging through the still wet glue, I was going to wipe the cable end clean and try again. But when I gently wiped the cable to remove the glue, all of the traces I'd applied it to where literally gone. There were a few bits left behind, but it really appeared that the glue had "dissolved" what was left of the original traces and were then wiped away. This is possible, as I don't know how traces in a ribbon cable are applied so that they adhere to the plastic. Whatever the case is, I believe this is a good product with a lot of potential, and had nothing to do with the failure of my repair. (For what its worth, I'm waiting for delivery of a "parts" mouse so I can scavenge a "new" ribbon cable. Yes, this is a special mouse and hasn't been manufactured for many years.)

Why did you pick this product vs others?:This product did not work. Trying to get a refund but since it came with 2 drops to use there's nothing to return. So I loss. Dont buy product . Chose 1 star cause I can't select 0 stars

I just finished using this product to repair two breaks in the traces on the circuit membrane for my IBM Model M keyboard. The breaks caused six keys on the bottom row to fail to register. I was a bit concerned about the operation never having done anything like this before but I researched a bit on Google and jumped in. The application was a bit messy since it was pretty difficult for me to lay down a thin line covering the breaks. However, I found that a toothpick worked pretty well to scrape the overflow away.One issue keeping me from rating this as 5-star was the instructions, especially about curing after application. After additional research I decided to use my heat gun on the low setting. I kept a laser thermometer on the site and raised the gun until the surface temp was about 200 - 250 F. I could see the product sort of flowing out and after 2 minutes I touch tested and found it was dry. A continuity test showed the problem was fixed.

I had a TV/Receiver remote control that the volume and on/off functions stopped working because the carbon conductivity on the underside of rubber buttons had worn off. I did not need a full bottle of electric conductive paint so I ordered this small amount of silver conductive paint/paste. I did not use it as a paste, I only used it to paint a spot on remote buttons to get conductivity again. It was easy to use [I did not read directions] I simply squeezed out a dab then blotted a piece of paper towel to apply to the rubber pad, I let dry for an hour or so, reassembled the remote control and it worked again.

The title with “paste” is deceiving. This is more like a paint, not a paste. It coats but does not bond. A soldering bead connecting a transistor to an electronic power supply board on my humidifier got loosened after the power cord at the base was stepped on. I used this product to repair the connection and it worked like a charm initially. After just a few days the connection loosened again. The second time I used this paint, I added a bead of super glue over it once it dried. That did the trick, and I have had no issues after 2 months

melts every plastic surface it comes to contact with. stains everything. does not hold. does not conduct.

I have a Gem Car (electric) and it quit going fast, slower and slower. I got the service manual and found the problem with the gas pedal or throttle. The unit was sealed but I unsealed it and found the crack in the trace. Put two layers of the conductive paint and worked like a charm with like .02 ohms and set hard as a rock. Saved about 400 bucks for a rebuild. Thanks

works good
