Introducing ArctiClean, the first retail product to emerge from
the union of Arctic Silver and Nanotherm technology.
ArctiClean is a two-step cleaning process that removes existing
thermal grease or pads and prepares the thermal surface for a fresh application
of thermal interface material. ArctiClean is a specially formulated product to
remove TIM from heatsinks and electronics.

Features:
Unique 2-Step Process
ArctiClean 1 Thermal Material Remover quickly emulsifies and dissolves the
existing thermal grease or pad from the CPU and/or heatsink so that it can
easily be removed with a clean cloth or paper towel. A few drops of ArctiClean 2
Thermal Surface Purifier and some gentle wiping then removes the remaining
residue and inhibits flash corrosion on copper or aluminum.
ArctiClean 1 Thermal Material Remover
ArctiClean 1 uses a proprietary combination of non-toxic biodegradable solvents
to emulsify thermal greases or thermal pads. The citrus and soy based solvents
in ArctiClean 1 match or exceed many hazardous and volatile solvents such as
fluorinated and chlorinated organic solvents, acetone, MEK (methyl ethyl ketone),
mineral spirits, isopropyl alcohol, and toluene.
ArctiClean 2 Thermal Surface Purifier
The cationic surfactants in ArctiClean
2 remove any residue left by the ArctiClean 1 leaving a pristine surface for the
application of a new thermal interface material. It also incorporates advanced
flash corrosion inhibitors that minimize the corrosion layer on copper and
aluminum allowing for more intimate contact between the thermal interface
material and the heatsink.
Using ArctiClean 2 With Other Solvents
Most solvents and cleaning products
leave residue on the CPU and heatsink that negatively affects the performance of
any subsequently applied thermal interface material. ArctiClean 1 Thermal
Surface Purifier removes the residue of citrus or petroleum based cleaners and
inhibits flash corrosion on a copper or aluminum heatsink.
