it's important to understand the color "codes" for clear cache actions 
here: In the top menu we have red, yellow and green. These colors 
represent how bad or not bad clearing a particular cache is.

So clearing a cache with a green lightning won't hurt, but red could 
harm your site's performance (for a while at least).
So you got to decide which color (red/yellow/green) fits clearing a 
single page's cache.
I would go for yellow as it largely depends on what is on that page. If 
it's a normal content page with only one cache entry it might be green, 
if it's a news single page with maybe thousands of cache entries it's 
probably red. So yellow would be a middle way.

For the icon itself: use the page icon and place a small lightning on 
its lower right corner. (like attached)
