So... some video cards have protective coating on their transistors, which is why pencil mods won't work on them. Question is, could you scratch the coating off with a needle or fine sandpaper? Would pencil mods work after that?
 
yes you could scrape it off, but just the metal connectors, not the transistor itself.
be very careful though, and have fun :)
