Is there a recommended way to remove the residue of what I presume was thermal

for best thermal transfer to the heatsink.

Silicon oil seems to remove that easily. I've found two recent sources of
silicon oil when I needed to do this.
1) My mate had some with his electric shaver.
2) Oil filled Bird dummy load.
