MX Cleaner

Excellent product, honestly, after spending a good few minutes opening my ps4, I had to remove old thermal paste from a 12 year old ps4, and it wiped it off straight away. No need to put pressure and get nails involved, it was really good. Only thing I'd say is the smell from the wipes are very strong.

These ARCTIC MX Cleaner wipes are a game-changer. I've been building and upgrading PCs for years, and my least favourite part has always been cleaning off old, stubborn thermal paste. It's messy and often requires a lot of isopropyl alcohol and elbow grease. These wipes make the entire process incredibly simple, clean, and fast. The two-step system is brilliant. The "Cleaner" wipe (Step 1) dissolves even the most caked-on thermal compound with ease, lifting it right off the CPU or GPU. The "Purifier" wipe (Step 2) then removes any remaining residue and prepares the surface perfectly for a new application. The wipes are a good size, lint-free, and don't leave any fibres behind. With 20 individually packed sets (40 wipes in total), this kit offers fantastic value for money. It's more than enough for dozens of builds and upgrades. I used one set to clean both my CPU and my old graphics card, and the results were flawless. My temperatures have been great since reapplying new paste on the perfectly prepped surfaces. If you build, upgrade, or maintain PCs, do yourself a favour and get these. They're an essential, time-saving tool. Highly recommended!

Picked up the Arctic MX Cleaner Wipes (40 pieces) when I was prepping to delid my toasty Intel i7-7700, and honestly, I’m really glad I did. If you've ever scraped off Intel's sorry excuse for thermal paste under a heat spreader, you’ll know it’s not exactly a clean process. These wipes made it so much easier. They’re super easy to use, good quality, and cut through the gunk without needing half a bottle of isopropyl and a pile of cotton buds. I used just a couple to clean up the die and the IHS, and everything was spotless, ready for some real thermal paste this time around. What’s really handy is that they’re individually sealed, so you’re not opening a whole pack and watching them dry out over time. You can stash a few in your toolbox or drawer and they’ll be ready whenever you need them. They keep for ages, and you’ll always have a clean one when the next messy job comes up. They’re not just great for CPU jobs either – I've since used them for cleaning up greasy thermal pads, heatsinks, old paste, and even some general-purpose grime on electronics. Basically, anywhere you’d normally use IPA and a cloth, these do the job faster and neater. In short: they save time, reduce mess, and make life a whole lot easier. Highly recommended if you're doing any kind of PC maintenance, delidding, or just want to keep things clean without turning your workspace into a chemical spill.

Cleans thermal paste well, only issue is it stinks out the whole place once you use them so maybe use them in a ventilated area.

Works amazingly well with one carful wipe over the cpu all the paste was removed. Could not recommend any other method, great product at a great price. Only downside is the very strong smell the wipe itself gives off but other than that it’s amazing

I had a couple of these wipes in a pack of thermal paste I used when switching my heatsink in my PC, and they work incredibly well at cleaning off old thermal paste. Lint free, convenient, and fast: so good that I had to order a full pack for my husband and I, in case we needed to do PC maintenance. One caution, though - these have a citrus-like smell that is *incredibly strong* and lingers. It's mostly pleasant, but very powerful, and even tossing a used wipe in the bin will give off the smell for quite some time. Still wholly recommend, but be aware of that as it could be overwhelming to people with sensitive noses.

This is crucial if you are re applying paste, definitely no brainer. Paste just comes off easily and leaves clean chip surface for the new application. Be careful of the smell though, really burns your lung if not well aerated

Worked great! Easy to use just kept having to fold it over to wipe the thermal paste off. Used two pieces, one for the cpu and one for the cooler. It does smell very strong but it's definitely not a bad smell.
