Yeah you are absolutely right. Pencil trick just makes things worse. Even with 850mhz and voltage=1 now I get a lot of HW errors. Time to break out the eraser!
Edit: Erased and back to normal. Zero HW errors @ 850mhz. Damn - now to find someone who can solder a bridge that tiny.

It was really annoying to do. What I did was get a gob onto the general bridge area, and then ran the solder tip (I have a fairly fine tip) along both sides of the bridge to collect any stray solder.
EDIT: Going to try using this to solder the bridge: http://www.ebay.com/itm/151169919397
Nice work
Cant imagine that solder paint will help though. Try a piece of very thin fuse wire a couple of inches long so you can hold it easy. Tack it on to the 2 contacts then break off the excess by bending back and forth or use a small blade to cut it.
Interesting idea, but where do you get fuse wire from? I wonder if folding a few layers of tin foil would work.
