I have a directcu cooler and I applied thermal grease directly on to the chip, smoothing it out with a rubber glove, I then put some on the base of the cooler and rubbed it around to fill the grooves between the pipes and alu, any excess was then wiped away.

Is this the best practice or have I done it entirely wrong?
