Replacing all the caps on an original Atari PONG pcb, and unfortunately some of the original solder had leaked through to the component side when it was originally soldered. Consequently some of the contact pads and traces (which appear to have only been adhesively fixed to the component side) lifted off the board when pulling off the caps.

None of the foil tore, so everthing should work fine once the components are soldered back in. But I'm interested in fixing it cosmetically. Anyone here with experience in this know what I can use to reaffix the foil to the PCB surface again?
 
Epoxy? Somewhere there's a link to a video that shows how to fix trashed edge connector pads, you might want to look that up for reference because I think he used some kind of epoxy.

Yah, found it. And the epoxy he recommends I can't find anywhere. In fact at any place around here I asked for even an electrical grade epoxy, they gave me looks like I was nuts.
