Wouldn't this end up with several layers of gushing thermal paste over the CPU after a couple of "swipes"? The idea behind applying a small thermal paste dot and spreading it around is to ensure an even paper-thin distribution while completely covering the CPU . Also you don't need to use a credit card or your fingers. Just cut a 3 x 5 index card in half and fold it origami-style so you have a stiff rectangle applicator with at least one right angle.
