Now, i Googled a bit on the subject, and came across this guy who also tried it with success:

So, the question is: can i safely do the vDroop mod with conductive paint? What are the long-term effects? Can the board handle the extra current! tnx, SP

Short answer: NO!
Conductive paint does create a (nearly) zero Ohms connection, while you only want to decrease the resistance value.
And believe me, this guy in the thread that you linked to, doesn't even remotely have a clue of what he's talking about. I wouldn't go as far as calling him an idiot because I don't know him personally, but honestly, he's talking bull.
And remember to use a multimeter when doing mods like that. Without measuring, it's like a lottery.
