I repair quite a few electronics myself.. However I have never had to you're use jumper wires. In your repair videos, your green and animal jumper wire that you most commonly use.....
I am trying to get information on how to find some, I have recently made an order on Amazon for this item:
Remington Industries 40SNSP.125 Magnet Wire, Enameled Copper Wire Wound, 40 AWG, 2 Oz, 4152' Length, 0.0034" Diameter, Natural.
And was wondering if this was the common wire used for repairing trace connections.
If not, what do I need to consider when repairing any PCB traces?
Sorry can't get back in to edit post here would be my ungarbled question....

- From what I have seen him use it is 0.1mm enameled wire with solder mask (the green cover)
- 40-38 AWG is a good starting point. It is useful for small lines and if you feel skilled you can always curl it up to make pads when you run out of pad strips.
"If not, what do I need to consider when repairing any PCB traces?"
- It's always good to have a variety of wires laying about to rebuild missing traces from. For example that copper braid for removing solder is always a good ground/power on larger traces.
- Personally I use the biggest lines I can get away with for the pads (at both attachment points) and the area to be working in.
