Thanks for the detailed vid! What are the materials used at 07:00-08:00 to clean and replace the paste? Specifically what's in the spray bottle and the syringe
Hello,
To clean the thermal paste, the author used a soft toothbrush (probably with isopropyllic alcohol).
The syringe contains a non-conductive thermal paste.
You can replace the toothbrush by cell polyurethane foam swabs and isopropilic alcohol to remove the old thermal paste if you want.
This is a laptop with a CPU that doesn't heat too much, so you can replace the original thermal paste by any non conductive thermal paste made to be used in computers it will be fine.
