Default Rear Defroster

Stupid question of the evening:

I'm in the process of scraping an old crappy tinting job from an otherwise nice rear hatch I've recently acquired in preparation for tinting it correctly and adding it to my car. In the course of removing the old tint I inevitably nicked the rear defroster "lines" in three or four spots. Does anyone know of a way to repair these? Can I get some sort of conductive metallized paint or something or should (can) a glass shop do it? Just curious. I actually DO use it on those foggy mornings and "June gloom" in L.A. is coming. . .

Haynes manual, p. 193.

I think parts stores sell repair kits.

While Haynes isn't great, its not that bad either. It does have mistakes, and obscure directions sometimes, but for many little problems it can help.

On the other hand, factory manuals are great, but especially on CD-ROM, there is so much information, it's often impossible to find what you need within 20 minutes.
