i think its could be better to cover the board with 2 parallel tapes outlining just the damaged circuit line ...then applying the pen ..
then removing the tapes ..
leaves a clean straight line .

or to save a lot of time take a .22 gage wire and jumper the trace. strip off abt 1/4" of insulation then "tin" the wire then snip it shorter so not to short with another contact, then just soder that wire from one side of the broken trace ie a restor leg or an IC or cap (where the broken trace meets the componet) then do the same on the other side.

You could put electro isolation tape around the spot you are trying to restore so only the target area would be contaminated with the conductor.
Im braking my head with a graffic card pcb, its so tiny im gona die xd

use tape to mask off the area around the trace. Two pieces of tape close to each other will make the thin straight line you're after

i use the pen all times it works fine for me, just one tiny tip. it's good idea to bake it or hot air it so it lasts longer.

Not the ideal solution, especially when you have tracks very close to each other.

Know where I could order one of these pens online? My keyboard had beer spilled on it on my birthday and they've since discontinued the model I have

It would be a good idea to clean the area from flux residues with isopropyl alcohol before applying the silver based compound.
