Tacx carbon paste would be better, despite the name it works just as well to prevent slipping on metal to metal interfaces.
On the other hand, an aluminium post is a steel frame shouldn't slip unless you're a real porker, as long as you tighten it properly, which is where the torque wrench comes in. 8Nm is about right.
