DIY Thermal Adhesive?

PermaBanned · 16 Apr 2010 at 16:46

I'm just wondering if there's anything around the household that could be used as a thermal adhesive. It doesn't need to be amazingly conductive, it's just for an LM386 which doesn't really require any cooling at all but i've got a heatsink from an old PSU that should fit it. I just need something to attach it with... any ideas?

edit, sorry thinking you meant paste, not so sure about adhesive

Superglue?

With a tight fit it should work . . . .
