It is important that the two surfaces are then rubbed together in order to help transfer the

The entire assembly is then bolted together at all mounting holes.
An example of a good thermal compound spreading can be seen in the photo below:-
How effective the spreading technique is can be checked by removing the controller and
inspecting the paste residue left on the mounting faces. On a well applied paste application, the
controller will be difficult to remove and a rippled surface will be left on the paste surface as
