Is that right through the gold, and copper beneath, or is there still some contamination?
For it to look like that I'm guessing there are some deep grooves in the pads.
If it gets a lot of use then any fix won't be as durable as the original.
I think it's gone through on one of the small tiles between the grooves, but the rest it just seems to be very light scratches or bits of dirt etc.
Think before doing anything I would check the slot on the DS. I thought about tinning the pads as well and wicking off any excess, but like @Spectre I can't see a lasting repair. Wondered if a home diy electrolysis setup could replace the gold with copper?
Much simpler if you have the skills would be using an old/cheap/otherwise broken cartridge and swap the rom. Never seen inside one so unsure what is actually inside. How much is a replacement?
