Cobducting paste is paste that conducts.

Conducts what, heat or electricity?

My first reading of the OP rang the electricity bell and too many
variables bell. But I see it could be thermal in which case the white
goopy thermal grease as used for processor to heatsink interfaces is
probably OK, though a boiler may well get significantly hotter.
