E6300 idling at 60 - HELP!

Spot on. It is hard and doesnt come off easily. Infact, and this is something I realized just now - the shape of the gray paste is an EXACT circle - I always wondered how that was - Now I know why :( :( Hot - Not all round the year - the winters are cool here. Not too hot, and not too cold...
