Arctic Silver ArctiClean 1 & 2 Thermal Surface Cleaner & Purifier 60ML Kit
Cons:Not Free
Pros:Citrus SmellCHEAPPurifier really gives the plating a shine! Comment:
I could use these bottles for more than 20 computers I bet! I can't believe how easy it was to remove the thermal compound. It literally took me 3 minutes to change the thermal compound on my H50 cooling.Love it. |

Arctic Silver ArctiClean 1 & 2 Thermal Surface Cleaner & Purifier 60ML Kit
Cons:None
Pros:Quick and easy to useBeginner friendly Comment:
I bought this because it's my first time cleaning and re-applying thermal paste. Surprisingly it was really easy. All I did was a few drops, wait 30 seconds, then wipe. Do that 3 times on the remover and done! I don't think you need to do it 3 times but since I'm a newb, I felt like 3 was a good number. Then I just used the purifier once and attach my fan and CPU together after applying MX-4.Worked like a charm and easy to use especially if you're a beginner!Highly recommended. |

Arctic Silver ArctiClean 1 & 2 Thermal Surface Cleaner & Purifier 60ML Kit
Cons:Left a fine oily sheen on one heatsink, price match took a day to process.
Pros:Seems to work as advertised, lids are tight and quantity of fluid sufficient. Comment:
Ordered this cleaning solution to apply to some heatsinks before a new application of MX-4. Seems to do the job, though I only used 99% iso alcohol previously and thus have little to compare with. I found that there was still a slight noticeable greasy sheen on the heatsink, but I might have just been doing it wrong. Also not impressed that it took a day for NCIX to pricematch this, as it meant that an order that would have been received on a Friday had to wait for delivery on Monday (when I was not home) and then a Tuesday pick-up at the post office. Still a good buy, all in all. |

Arctic Silver ArctiClean 1 & 2 Thermal Surface Cleaner & Purifier 60ML Kit
Cons:None really, perhaps high cost.
Pros:Works as advertised. Comment:
I bought this to get rid of old TIM when I wanted to upgrade my MoBo. Works really good but make sure you PM the cost down a bit to save some change. I couldn't find a high % alcohol anywhere locally so this suffice really well. The good thing is it only takes a couple drops so will likely last me a long time. recommended! |

Arctic Silver ArctiClean 1 & 2 Thermal Surface Cleaner & Purifier 60ML Kit
Cons:Price before PM..
Pros:Good performance if you don't have alcohol handy, purifier might be beneficial also Comment:
Good value especially if you PM; could prove very handy in separating TIM (Thermal Interface Material) from CPU/heatsink.. Purifier might also help heat absorption by a later applied TIM I'm guessing:) |

this works well. but i dont know how much better this is than normal alcohol, both work about the same from my experience. the surface purifier might be a plus though. |

For such a low price it makes thermal paste cleaning a ease. Just drop and whip, cpus looks and feel as brand new.Recommend for most, just remember to completely dry it. |

Arctic Silver ArctiClean 1 & 2 Thermal Surface Cleaner & Purifier 60ML Kit
Cons:none
Pros:Cheap and does the job Comment:
What can I say. It only got $5 and I needed to clean thermal paste for the new heat sink I put into the system. This stuff made it very easy to clean, I wish I had used it for years. Instead of trying to use water and soap, which as kind of stupid |

Arctic Silver ArctiClean 1 & 2 Thermal Surface Cleaner & Purifier 60ML Kit
Cons:you have to unscrew the bottle cap?
Pros:Works very well Comment:
Works like a charm, stage 1 literally dissolves the thermal paste but doesn't evaporate. Stage 2 basically makes stage 1 evaporate or something, and also cleans off some other stuff, not just thermal paste. This will NOT work on the yellow sponge crap that ASUS puts on the bottom of their NB/SB hs. Threw 2 in my order for the hell of it, $3.5 a pop |

Arctic Silver ArctiClean 1 & 2 Thermal Surface Cleaner & Purifier 60ML Kit
Cons:A little bit more expensive than 99% alcohol but still affordable
Pros:Affordable way to safely clean the thermal paste residue Comment:
Used it to clean the thermal paste that came with the stock intel cpu fan. It came out easily and I am sure that it will not damage my cpu. The second application was to prepare for the new thermal paste application! Got it at price match! Excellent NCIX! |

Arctic Silver ArctiClean 1 & 2 Thermal Surface Cleaner & Purifier 60ML Kit
Cons:Seems a bit expensiveWhat is purifier?
Pros:Cleans wellSmells nice Comment:
This worked quickly and well, leaving nice clean metal and a wonderful orange fragrance. However, alcohol works just about as well for me. Perhaps it's the paste I'm removing but I didn't see a difference between this and alcohol. It might be great on a thermal pad (I only used it on paste).The Purifier is a complete mystery. I can't see a difference after using it. Supposedly it inhibits "flash corrosion." |

Cons:Cost for how much you get
Pros:Does a good job of cleaning up thermal paste Comment:
Works well, but not something i would pick up unless i was already looking to make a purchase online. You can find other solutions cheaper if you look around a bit. |

Arctic Silver ArctiClean 1 & 2 Thermal Surface Cleaner & Purifier 60ML Kit
Cons:- Don't get A lot-Cost
Pros:- Good Cleaner Comment:
I got some of this before its not to bad. Really there is cheaper ways that gets the job done just as good. Actually had this old spray called spee-d-clean and removed the compound even better then this stuff. The cleaner itself was probably just 99% alcohol pretty much u can spray the cloth all day and you would not even feel a drop. |

Arctic Silver ArctiClean 1 & 2 Thermal Surface Cleaner & Purifier 60ML Kit
Cons:none yet.
Pros:smell good :)effective and do the job correctly Comment:
Use it to remove the white stuff that come with some "cheap" cooler parts.. you cant remove ALL the paste juste with a towel or something else, you need to use some chemical stuff and this one is very nice. Pretty easy to use and 10 seconds after putting the "remover" you can actually see the paste peel off the cpu or other parts. for the price, try it. very nice. |
Used this to clean the old thermal paste off my CPU when I upgraded my CPU cooler. Very easy to use, just put a few drops of the cleaning solution on and wait 30 seconds, wipe it off and then apply the purifying solution. Works very well.
