If necessary, later caulk removal
should be doable.

Conductive grease is another, probably easier, way, Edward.

That's a good choice with the added asset of no worry about
compromising
the contact interface. Inadvertent grease transfer would be the only
reservation,
aside from not having the lube as handy as a caulk tube.
