FAQs

How many wipes are in a box?

Each box of ARCTIC MX Cleaner contains 40 individually packed wipes.

Are these wipes safe for my CPU and heatsink?

Yes, the wipes are formulated with gentle, limonene-based ingredients that are effective at cleaning thermal paste without being overly abrasive to common metals and alloys used in CPUs and heatsinks.

Can I use these wipes to clean other electronic components?

These wipes are specifically designed for thermal compound removal from CPUs and heatsinks. It is not recommended to use them on other electronic components without consulting the component manufacturer's guidelines.

Do the wipes leave any residue?

No, the formula is designed to dissolve thermal paste cleanly, preventing smearing and leaving no residue when used correctly. This ensures optimal thermal conductivity for new paste application.

How long do the wipes last once opened?

Each wipe is individually sealed, which helps maintain its moisture for a long time. Once an individual packet is opened, it is best to use the wipe immediately.

What is the active ingredient in these wipes?

The active ingredient is limonene, a natural solvent derived from citrus peels, known for its cleaning properties and lower abrasiveness.

Are these wipes scented?

Yes, due to the limonene content, the wipes have a natural citrus scent.

Troubleshooting

Wipe seems dry

Ensure the individual packet was properly sealed. If a packet is compromised, the wipe may dry out prematurely. Use a fresh, properly sealed wipe.

Stubborn residue remains

Apply gentle pressure and allow the wipe a moment to dissolve the paste. For very old or thick residue, a second wipe may be necessary for complete removal.

Slight tackiness after cleaning

Ensure all dissolved compound has been removed. Wipe the surface again with a clean, dry section of the wipe or a separate clean cloth if needed. The formula is designed for residue-free removal, so ensure all dissolved material is absorbed.
