Heya!
I lifted a single solder pad entirely from my escape key, and I am not sure how to repair it. I read online that I have to scrape the trace free from the solder mask, but it sounds dangerous and I would like to avoid that if possible.
What would be the best repair?

Thanks guys!
EDIT:
So apparently I need AWG 22 or 24 cable to connect the Escape key to the key next to it.
Does thickness or type of AWG 22/24 cable matter? Do I just expose some of the copper/wire inside and just solder it on the pins?
Can I just use any copper wire, and how important is insulation, like would I be able to cut an use an old ethernet or usb cable etc for the job?
Thanks!
