This is a long post but please read it if you know how to unlock amd xps.

I just took apart my Xp Palomino processor and heatsink for the first time since i installed it for the first time and it was a lot easier than i had expected... I put on some arctic silver 5 because the stock heatpad was almost all melted away. Anyhow, i thought of unlocking my processor because i had it opened.

I read all that i could and watched some guides and I understand the procedure competely.
I already got the laser locked bridges filled with super glue so they won't ground themselves.

MY problem is... i can't find conductive ink or silver lacquer anywhere to connect the l1 bridges. I tried radio shack, lowes, home depot, aco, ace, none have the silver lacquer.
I was wondering it silver filled epoxy will work because i found some at murrays. The silver filled epoxy was in a kit to repair window defrosters. There are two syringes and i guess you mix them... can i use this mixture to connect the bridges.... Id rather use tha lacquer because it isn't permanent.... but where can i find that stuff..
 
You can use the rear window defogger stuff, but personally, I'd stay away from that stuff, possibly because I worry too much about screwing up my CPU. You can get an little bottle of conductive liquid meant for unlocking bridges over at HighSpeedPC for $9. Not the cheapest in the world but I'd rather get it than risk borking my processor.
