[time-nuts] newbie question Thunderbolt supply

Are these thermal pads temp conductive or insulative?  If you want heat
dissipation why not use the readily available thermal grease used for
semiconductor mounting? Cheap and not really messy if applied correctly

Thank you. Will look for it here under thermal pad.
