| Thermal tape is easier for a manufacturer to apply and

| (tape) in a uniform thickness. The tape is cut to a
certain
| length and applied to the bottom of the heatsink. The
vinyl
| tape then serves to protect the actual layer of compound.

| Thermal compound comes in tubes, and you must apply a
small
| amount and spread it on a in a very thin layer. You also
| should not touch it with your fingers, use a clean tool to
| apply and spread the compound.
