It depends on what exactly the components involved are.  If a
clip is used (like in the case of a CPU), a thermal pad is
best.  If no attaching device is used, and it will be
permanent, thermal epoxy is best (something like "Arctic
Silver").  Heat sink compound is not good because it can dry
out and shrink.
