Nope, you need something that is a thermal conductor and isn't an electrical conductor. This is the best stuff: Arctic Silver Arctic Alumina 5g Thermal Adhesive Set AATA-5G - Newegg.com

while you have it apart, put the heatsink back on and might as well slap it in some plasti-dip and waterproof it :P

Or instead of making it water resistant with plastidip he could really do it right and waterproof it with conformal coating. :ror:

I replied to your pm but I will add the info here as well.

What I use:
Conformal coating - MG Chemicals 419b
Conformal coating stripper - MG Chemicals 8310 (if you need to solder on a board you already coated)

Both are available on ebay and amazon.
