They were using an Engraver set at the lowest setting as well, not a Dremel!...
If I was to do that I'd use either a scalpal blade(very gently!!) or some high graded 1200+ wen&dry folded over into a 'sharp edge' and gently(!!) sand the trace away. the trouble is there are traces under the surface as well. when joining the bridges to 'unlock' an XP you have to be careful not to sand away to much of the green laminate surface, if you do there is a copper trace underneath that if the 'electrical conduct paint' touches it outside of the bridges 'oval' shaped enclosure) it locks the multiplyer at 11x (I think it's 11 anyway)...
