There is thermal paste already pre applied on the underside of the stock heatsink. If you want to remove it, I would just use the stock paste for now, run Prime95 to make it hot (thus easier to come off), remove with alcohol, and then replace it using a horizontal line centered in the middle of the processor's heat spreader.
