I have a 55 year old door chime clock and the board has carbon arcs which is
causing a short. I have seen boards with this problem before and they were
repaired using some type of filler. The filler I have seen has always been
white if this helps. I tried Google to see what is used. Does someone on the
group know?

Thank you for your help

Chris

Can you scrape off the carbonized material and just coat what remains
with clear nail polish?

A filler needs to be used and then re-solder the four contact points.

Plastic wood? It's not white but it might be more like the wood that
is there?
