You are doing everything right from what I can see, just needs more!
That handle part of the square is probably machined perfectly flat and can't flex right? I'd use that. It took me well over an hour to get the finish i wanted with 400 grit. Just keep rotating the cooler 90 degrees every 5 minutes or so so you are working it evenly. Sand in a figure 8 motion and if it starts catching too much to be smooth, add a little more water. I'd cut the sand paper in to small pieces just large enough to use comfortable around the block and change them every 5-10min depending on how it was feeling.
The amount of paste in the first one was a bit much, I recommend people over apply because its easy to smear off the paste during re-assembly or just not have enough to fill in a bad job and the HBM gaps. You can't hurt it, it just takes more clean up time, too little paste and its cooked. Now you have a feel for it the second application is looking good, I'd put a little excess over the HBM and go thin in the middle (when its flat!) now you have the hang of it.
Looking forward to your results! I see that SC mouse pad :)
If you are looking for a good block to sand with, I'd grab these: https://www.amazon.com/BL-123NH-Pair-Blocks-without-holes/dp/B000P496VU/ref=sr_1_8?ie=UTF8&qid=1550778570&sr=8-8&keywords=machinist+block
