Ron: Thanks for attempting to clarify Walter's question. I did not read that he was attempting to apply a conductive paste, but I was unaware of the properties of Alodine. If you're more interested in performing a restoration, then clearly the bolt threads and bolt/screw's head are adequate to create the ground. In this part of Canada, metal forms iron oxide especially when exposed to winter salt that tends to form corrosion that can isolate a grounding connection. From my experience, encapsulating the rust (with POR-15), a cleaned grounding lug and a new bolt/screw should be more than adequate.
