My personal favorite has always been artic silver ceramique.  Its non-conductive  & non-capacitive properties are handy if you get it on other components. Time to head downstairs and see what the nights labor brought. 

Thats what I run.

Chipsets:

That Tuniq TX-2 had a crazy amount of 5 star reviews on the egg too, looks like good stuff and also inexpensive.  MX-4 is the same, nonconductive and non capacitive using shaped carbon particles. The HeGrease looks toxic as all high hell, and that indigo is just scary with the excess liquid metal dripping out the sides of the cpu, but of course they give the best results. 
 
Check the reviews on these two:

I am about to change mine out on all my Water Blocks.
I use ARCTIC MX-4 now but from what is being said in this Thread Arctic Silver Ceramique is better.

I just installed a chipset plate and its good to go.  2 washer spacers, and copper right to the chipset.  Not likely going to have any updates until mid week, if not the end of the week.  Going to be guncoating copper, and cutting delrin.

You mean you're going to be applying paint to the blocks?  If I have a choice, I'd like mine to be bare copper so I can have it gold plated locally if I can find a shop within reasonable distance to do it.

Do you want it bead blasted, or just left as is? 
Did you find a plater yet?

Left as is works for me.  My setup doesn't care much about aesthetics :)
 
Haven't found a plater yet but being in a large city I don't think it will be too hard to find one.  I suppose I can always mail order it if I need to as well. 

I can bead blast it aand clear coat it also. If you don't care much about aesthetics, why not get the gun coat? I lap the bottoms so there is no paint on the bottom
