Default Circuit board repair glue that can stand soldering temperature?

Is there some kind of glue that can bond copper to fiberglass and
withstand the heat of a soldering iron? I have to glue some copper
strips to a board and can't just draw new traces with a silver ink pen
(really I can't, so don't suggest it or ask why). I've tried slow and
fast cure epoxies, super glue, and JB Weld, but all of them melt almost
instantly when I touch the soldering tip to them. The JB Weld lasts
slightly longer, so there must be some kind of epoxy that will work.

Exactly what glue (brand & part no. would be nice) do companies that do
fancy circuit board repairs use? I mean repairs like rebuilding areas
that have been chomped off completely.


Some years ago I ran into a type of glue or kit meant to repair car exhaust
tubes. Did not see it again but you may try a car specialist shop. They will
also sell screen heater repair glue but I understand you tried this already.

Some DIY shops overhere sell heater repair kit, meant to repair stoves,
fireplaces, barbecues and so on. Maybe to thick for you application but you
can give it a try...
