It's the CPU you are talking about and the glue is paste, so unless you went and washed the CPU in soap or with water, I'd get some new paste - add it and apply it.
The paste is used to connect the CPU to the heat sink, if you are lucky, your CPU didn't fry and just shut down the computer cause it can get instantly overheated w.o. the paste.
All depends on the type and how you cleant it.
