Ran across this Conductive wire glue. This might prove useful for using aluminum foil for shielding, no fold-overs required. It might find other uses, although I question their claim that it can replace solder. Might also be good for attaching a bridge ground to a trem claw, or anything else that's hard to solder onto.

There's also this:-
(from the Oz site "Ferret.com.au")
Devcon has announced its Syon® electrically conductive adhesive solders that can be used to form conductive paths in applications where hot soldering would be ineffective or impractical. These epoxy and epoxide formulations are said to mix and pour easily, fill voids completely and cure with minimal air entrapment. They provide environmental and impact resistance. Syon Tru-Bond® 206A Conductive Adhesive Solder is a pourable liquid for bonding electrical components that could be damaged by hot solder. This silver-filled epoxide is also useful where hot solder would not bond to the types of metals or wires to be joined, as well as for microwave shielding. Tru-Bond 214 Adhesive is a silver-filled, nonsagging epoxy paste for applications where a conductive bond is required and where hot solder is impractical. Tru-Bond 215 Copper-Filled Epoxy Adhesive is both electrically and thermally conductive. It can be used in service temperatures from -18.33° to +93.3°C.

Anyone have any experience, or stern warnings, about using this on an amp? I ask this as I don't trust my soldering skills at the board level, and wonder if this would be an acceptable substitute.
The temperature rating on the Tru-Bond 215 Copper-Filled Epoxy Adhesive goes up to about 200o Fahrenheit. Would this be pushing the limit in a home stereo amp?
The amp is landfill fodder anyway, but I might be inclined to give it a shot if this stuff would work.
