At a job I once had we used a conductive grease that was good for almost anywhere there was a problem getting a good connection. It came in a tube of about 15 ounces and was sold as high temperature grease. There was not anything on the package about it being conductive, but it was loaded with graphite and was a good conductor. I don't remember the name of the company that made it.
