PCB repair pen/goo - any recommended type / UK sources?

Greetings achoa

I am looking around for a PCB repair pen, or goo, for XP>MP mod.
Preferably in UK.

Having discovered that what Maplins say they have in stock doesn't
necessarily reflect what they actually do have in stock, (and my
Googling for this has been a miserable failure), I turn here for help.

Any one know of a (preferably) UK supplier of this?
Or preferred brand/type?

Thanks in advance for any pointers.

Cheers

Thank you! Probably far cheaper than exotic stuff.

Couple of questions though ...
Will it take solder, and how do I get it off when I've messed up?

You won't need any solder for an XP>MP mod. You can scrape it off. It's
just conductive paint.

I know I don't need solder for this job, but there are others I have in
mind. I'll see what the man in the shop says.

You won't be able to solder to it with good results. It's paint. It will
burn. And can't for life of me figure out any occasion you would ever need
to solder to paint. Either forget the paint and solder to the point where
you were going to paint from, or paint all the way to the end. If you need
to ads wire to the end, paint it on.

What I meant to say was that you could paint each end of the wire to the
connection point or any point in between.

I think we have now established that the product you have mentioned does
not fulfil my requirements.
Thank you for your help.
