I just looked at the several Big Shuriken videos on you tube. Ignore how they apply thermal paste. Instead go to arcticsilver.com and follow their instructions.
One of the vids made a good point. Since you have heat spreader ram, you should install the heatsink before the ram because the heatspreaders will make it even more difficult to get your fingers under the cooler overhand well enough to apply pressure down on the push pins. Install the ram after the heatsink is secure.
