Laptop Thermal Paste

[Ben.]

Hey guys, Im a noob when it comes to the proper hardware etc of computers/laptops.

Anyways, Long story cut short, I took the heatsink off, and looks like it needs some new paste, I just dont have a clue what to get :S.

So if you guys could grab me a link of ebay of a good thermal paste, and step by step instructions on how to apply it etc, that would be amazing

Thanks in advance

When I do it, shall i remove what ever is on there, then just squirt this on, and reassemble?
