For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.Thermal pads are usually smack bang in the middle of the bottom of the heatsink - it's not particularly paint like. More akin to a very thin piece of material stuck to the bottom of the heatsink.
They're generally found on the underside of the heatsinks that come with processors.
If what I've described sounds similar to what's on your heatsink, but you still want to go for thermal paste, you'll need to clean the thermal pad off with some kind of alcohol based cleaning solution to break down the adhesive.
