Where can I find thermal tape(?) for an ESC heatsink?

I don't know about thermal tape, but how about thermal grease that computer building hobbyists use when installing heatsinks on their processors? Wouldn't that be a better choice?

Do computers move and jump like a 4WD buggy? :D

Thermal tape (not to be confused with thermal paper tape) can be found all over the net. I'd bet you could even get a small quantity off ebay fairly cheap. There used to be a place in Edmonton....I can't remember the name of it,but they were a distributor for Arctic (Silver), you could probably google it.:)

I did find that...but I'm looking for those little patch sized pieces that come OEM with the ESC.
