Have you considered good ol' thermal heat sink compound?  It's the stuff 
that they use to mount power transistors on to heat sinks.  It's not really 
an adhesive, but you said that wasn't the most important requirement.  It's 
also usually electrically insulating - the whole point is to keep live 
electronic components from shorting to grounded heat sinks.  It is designed 
specifically to enhance thermal conductivity between metals.

Any real electronics supply house or catalog distributor will probably 
carry at least a couple different brands.  (Don't know about Radio Shack, 
probably not.)  It comes in small containers or tubes depending on how much 
of the goop that you need.  It's a mess, but it's non-corrosive and it works.
