While putting on my cpu cooler backplate I managed to scratch the back of my motherboard a little. in one of the little scratches I can see the copper tread just a little. my computer boots up fine.
Ive called asus and asked about risks and they said if it boots up its fine.
but is there any risk/fix i can do for the enamel?

Its a Asus z170a motherboard

I did the same thing to my Gigabyte board, except on the front side where there are dozens of circuit lines going through it. It works just fine and I havent had any issues with it, even with overclocking. So you probably dont have anything to worry about.

I dont think there is anything you can do to fix the scratch, just make sure you dont have anything conductive near it. perhaps put some electrical tape over it if you are concerned.
