So its permanent as he says in the video? That's just dumb. In the video he's just using the shit as a thermal compound to attach a CPU to a heatsink. How the hell do you use it if you gotta attach something as simple as an 18 pin surface mount IC or even worse a 256 pinner?? And then if this shit really is glue then when the component goes bad you can't just apply heat to it to remove it and replace it with another one? This sounds like a good idea in theory but it really has no practical use, I hope I never come across a board I've gotta fix with this shit being used.

If I never have to deal with thermal paste again, I'll live.
