Arctic Silver ArctiClean 1 & 2 Thermal Surface Cleaner & Purifier 60ML Kit
Cons:More helpful instructions would have been nice
Pros:Worked great, removed all the goop and made it look just like new. Comment:
Overall this stuff worked great, it took it all off (with the help of a putty knife) and it made all the old thermal paste and residue slide like butter. This was for cleaning a 360 and while it did not fix my Red Ring of Death problem, it cleaned the CPU and GPU beyond my expectations :) |

Arctic Silver ArctiClean 1 & 2 Thermal Surface Cleaner & Purifier 60ML Kit
Cons:PriceyNot much better than alcoholBad smell
Pros:Gets rid of it fast Comment:
The first thing I noticed is the atrocious smell. It's horrible. It did its job very well, but not much better than alcohol. For the price, it's not really worth it. |

Cons:None
Pros:Made with 100% awesome Comment:
What a great product. Works unbelievably well, I cleaned out a P4 from a few years ago that had the paste caked on. Let this stuff soak in, and bam it wipes off like nothing. When price-matched, it's unbeatable! 4 for the price of 1! |

Feel comfortable to use it to clean old thermal on my Q6600 + Q9300. I am sure that the product is overpriced. |

Arctic Silver ArctiClean 1 & 2 Thermal Surface Cleaner & Purifier 60ML Kit
Cons:pricepoor packaging (but it works)small bottle (but probably tons of applications)
Pros:Cleans all types of thermal interface material i've triedeye dropperemulsifies the TIM instead of just washing it off Comment:
Decided to just buy this for a couple of bucks instead of using alcohol (first time custom PC) worked great and easy to use. Also, clears off the intel stock TIM reall quickly and using a paper towel, most of the TIM gets absorbed. Also has a nice scent of oranges.would buy again (probably wouldnt need to :p) |

Arctic Silver ArctiClean 1 & 2 Thermal Surface Cleaner & Purifier 60ML Kit
Cons:Runs out fast if you do a lot of part swapping or have to maintain a lot of systems.
Pros:Cleans. What more do you want? Comment:
The only thing about this stuff is that it takes a while to completely wipe clean. I use cotton balls to clean my heatsinks with this stuff, and it takes a good 6-7 cotton balls for just the first "cleaning" solution. The second one is a lot quicker, though.It's important that you clean your thermal compound when you remove a heatsink, as you want to make sure the gaps are clean and properly filled.I need to buy more, I'm running out rather quickly. |

Arctic Silver ArctiClean 1 & 2 Thermal Surface Cleaner & Purifier 60ML Kit
Cons:Small bottles
Pros:Works, cheap, good instructions, not a bad scent Comment:
Good stuff. Dissolves and cleans thermal paste effectively and smells good while doing it. Only gripe is that bottles run out quickly; I was doing some testing and the liquid was gone after using it like 10 times. Good buy. Cheap after price match. |

Arctic Silver ArctiClean 1 & 2 Thermal Surface Cleaner & Purifier 60ML Kit
Cons:-Takes a bit of time-Small bottles
Pros:-Smells nice-Cleans well-Much better than getting out a knife to scrape off old gunk Comment:
Great stuff overall, smells like oranges and takes about 1 minute to dissolve the old thermal compound. Only thing is the bottles are a bit small. Overall good buy for getting rid of stock thermal grease |

Arctic Silver ArctiClean 1 & 2 Thermal Surface Cleaner & Purifier 60ML Kit
Cons:none thus far!!!
Pros:Great for cleaning your cpu and heatsink before to clear up any left over thermal paste or residue!!! Comment:
I always used a little alcohol to clean my cpu and heatsink before applying thermal paste , this was before I learned that alcohol is really not good for your cpu as it will eat away at it after some time, as well it is not all that great to be breathing in while cleaning lol I used this cleaner and it worked great with a nice citrus smell no left over residue and very easy to apply using the drops =) |

Arctic Silver ArctiClean 1 & 2 Thermal Surface Cleaner & Purifier 60ML Kit
Cons:No packaging?
Pros:Like magic, thermal paste wipes awaySmells nice Comment:
Comes in a plastic bag, nothing else.A few drops of bottle #1 and the old thermal paste can be wiped away after a minute.Bottle #2 will remove any left over residue. Works well and leaves CPUs and heatsinks shiny. Lots of fluid to do dozens of CPUs I bet. |

Arctic Silver ArctiClean 1 & 2 Thermal Surface Cleaner & Purifier 60ML Kit
Cons:none
Pros:effective, safe for your expensive components Comment:
30ml bottles have eye dropper like tip which makes accurate application possible (don't want to flood your ICs with the stuff). Very effective solvent which is citrus based (akk orange clean). The purifier solution also works very well leaving no residue. Does not appear to be alcohol based which is good since alcohol can damage(corrode)the PCB etc.Your components are expensive - its worth the money to get this cleaning system to do it right! |

Arctic Silver ArctiClean 1 & 2 Thermal Surface Cleaner & Purifier 60ML Kit
Cons:NONE!
Pros:Works greatReasonable priceGives me peace of mind Comment:
Just used it to clean off 3 cpu's including one that was hurting pretty bad ( old grease from hell ) on an old motherboard I had lying around. Was a great test subject and this product works great. I'd rather spend the little extra $ for piece of mind , especially when dealing with a cherry-picked chip. Does it make a huuuge difference? Maybe not to some but to me for my piece of mind it does.( bad Iron Maiden reference there for those that didn't catch that..)I'LL DEFINITELY BUY THIS AGAIN WHEN NEEDED |

Arctic Silver ArctiClean 1 & 2 Thermal Surface Cleaner & Purifier 60ML Kit
Cons:Price
Pros:Makes aftermarket thermal solutions much easier Comment:
This stuff works great, price may be a bit high, but I figure if you're working with hundreds of dollars worth of equipment, you may as well spend an extra 10 bucks for the good stuff. So far have used to remove factory installed thermal tape/compound for aftermarket solutions on a CPU and video card. |

Arctic Silver ArctiClean 1 & 2 Thermal Surface Cleaner & Purifier 60ML Kit
Cons:None.
Pros:Cleans thermal paste better than anything else. Comment:
This stuff cleans thermal paste that has been caked on for years! I used it to remove some Arctic Silver 5 on a Pentium 4 that was applied over 2 years ago. At the end of the cleaning, the processor and heatsink both looked brand new! |
The Arctic Silver ArctiClean 1&2 are the best way to remove any thermal paste from whatever device you need to use it on. I used to use rubbing alcohol and cotton balls to remove thermal paste from my Xbox 360, and while it would work eventually it took hours. Now I remove thermal paste in less than 5 minutes, and with maximum efficiency. The surface always sparkles. In addition, the cleaner smells wonderful!
