Thermal compound / paste replacement
So I have a switch lite that i completely dissasembled for a housing replacement and I found out that theres two types of thermal stuff inside (thermal putty? and regular thermal paste). I have MX-2 thermal paste but im not sure if i can replace the pink stuff with it. Is is possible?

After removing the metal shield clean the old puddy out and reapply between the heat sink and shield and the lower part of the switch.
