I think I'm going to use the silicon route. The back of the LED modual is quite large and a thin coat of silicon over the large area should do the trick.

I use GE silicon on a lot of stuff and have even fully encapsulated electronics in the stuff.
I assume it conducts heat to some degree, or active parts in the 'capsule' would over-heat..
If the rate of heat transfer is fast enough to keep the LED module from over-heating, you're good..
Some of the old Intel CPU chips had such fast heat rise times,
you couldn't turn them on with a badly installed heat-sink for even 30 seconds..
Those heat sinks had to act quickly..
