I'm not worried about the way of spreading it, I watched a lot of tutorials, I'm worried about the manufacturer of the thermal paste. It's "Akfix HT 300" and on its backside it mentions everything between cars, washers and ovens, but nothing about PC or more specifically CPU. Too bad that this is the only one "thermo paste" I found in my village. Detailed information - http://www.akfix.com/sayfalar.asp?Language...id2=260&b=detay
