Is it necesary to repair lifted traces/pads ?

its actually a pad at the end of a trace to mount a wire/pin
connection to another board (not a hole)

if one does need to repair then how does one ree-glue or repair
a lifted trace/pad ?

thanks for any help,
robb




I have used super glue (ca).
Be careful when you solder over it, the fumes are nasty.

Superglue is relatively nontoxic, it's been used to close wounds, but the
fumes sure do sting.

If the pad is badly lifted I often just use a scrap of resistor lead or wire
wrap wire to jumper the component lead to good trace further up.
