    Individually packed

    The 40 MX-Cleaner cleaning cloths included in the set are individually-packed and airtight. This keeps them moist for a long time, making them suitable for both hobby users and enthusiasts.

    Perfect cleaning

    MX Cleaner dissolves old and heavily dried thermal paste, like your MX-2 or MX-4, so that it can be picked up and removed with the cloth without any problems.

    Gentle active ingredients

    ARCTIC's MX Cleaner is limonene-based and therefore free of alcohols or benzenes. This natural substance is mainly used in industrial cleaning, as it is effective and at the same time gentle to metals and alloys.

    Residue-free removal

    In contrast to cleaning with handkerchiefs, household rolls or cloth wipes, the thermal paste does not smear on the processor, but is cleanly dissolved from the surface and removed. Even stubborn traces and residues from thermal pads can be reliably removed.

    ARCTIC MX Cleaner Wipes (Pack of 40)

    No additives

    The MX Cleaner is consisting of 100% Limonene extracted from citrus essential oil. Pure natural essences come often with a very strong, a bit unpleasant smell, which quickly dissipates and is easily washable. ARCTIC has chosen not to alter the scent by adding chemicals.

    plenty of decent wipes, cheap, but with a strong lime scent

    plenty of decent wipes, cheap, but with a strong lime scent
    Plenty of wipes, although on hindsight I could have ordered a smaller number. I tested the product cleaning up thermal grizzly kryonaut paste, which wasn't heavily applied. I ended up using two wipes. I have a contact frame over the processor, which although not necessary, makes cleaning slightly easier to do.The wipes are of a reasonable size, but with a very strong scent, reminiscent of a mixture of lime and petrol. After using, I suspect the scent could easily still be there a day or two later if you didn't open any windows, but other than that, you shouldn't have any real problems.I've uploaded the box to show that the one I received was smaller to the one marketed on the page. It's likely an update to save space (it's marked as 2022). I would recommend these saturated wipes as a cheap alternative to working with liquid as a cleaner, especially for the price.

    This does exactly what it says, it cleans any old thermal paste from your processor or heat sink with ease, only down side is the smell is not so nice but it does soon dissipate
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 7 August 2023
    So I only needed one sheet for re pasting my cpu, and it does a solid job of cleaning the paste off, but god damn, the smell these things leave is bad, and overpowering, would suggest either sorting it outside or open every window, and go out for fresh air quite often, this will give you a headache

    I messed around with the ArctiClean solutions prior to using these and honestly these do both of those things in one without the hassle.

    The wipes feel a bit weird to hold, if you’re sensitive then maybe use with disposable gloves and definitely wash your hands after.

    I had a product with years old thermal paste caked on, and once the wipe touched the paste it instantly began to dissolve and remove itself as if it was magic.

    No more nonsense of small bottles and a two part system, just tear and wipe away and you’re done. Recommended.

    I bought these as I was upgrading cpu and cooler and know how messy used thermal paste can be. The quality of these wipes were great, a couple quick wipe overs and it cleared the remaining paste easily even though it had dried a bit leaving a clean surface ready for a future application. As others have said, there is a clear lime smell, but I like that so for me it was a bonus. The wipes are definitely well saturated, so glad I read to avoid them touching my clothes, in case the stains. Glad I bought a box, these will be a go-to for me using in the future.

    Added bonus, it took the tarnish off the old cpu cooler's copper pipes as well!

    Removes the most heat hardened caked up thermal paste in a single wipe. Cleans everything up a treat, simple to open sachets that keep the wipes fresh.
    I would advise wearing gloves.
    If your asthmatic or Bronchial use them near a wide open window as the odor is quite overpowering.

    These really do stink, even more than Timclean, then there's the simple truth that because the wipes are so small you are going to go through a lot of them just to clean the IHS on your CPU just the 1 time, then you've got the cold plate on your cooler to clean too...

    I find it hard to recommend these given how wasteful they are. Better to use some sort of lint free cloth/blue roll and something like Timclean or Isopropyl Alcohol (Timclean wiffs a bit too, but not like these do...). My wife's review "Use these, your partner will hate you. If you do use these, make sure to bag them and seal the bag immediately, the stink doesn't stop even once they dry out!". So you might be ok if you're single and/or have no sense of smell.... Heck, even my dogs wouldn't come near me for ages after using these things.... THEY HONK!! Horse manure enriched compost on a hot day doesn't smell quite as bad as these things. No, it isn't a lovely citrus essential oil smell, it's full on chemical factory disaster.

    Remove thermal paste? 100/100
    Scent? 30/100. For me, it is strongly reminiscent of gasoline. Not that strong. BUT. Good natural ventilation alone isn't going to cut it. Although the smell is mild, IT STAYS (as long as you have used wipe in the vicinity). Thinking about putting it into zip lock? Think again. Use some airtight receptacle to dispose of this thing 😅 (3 zip-locks were not enough to keep the smell at bay; 5 did the job)

    Reviewed in Italy on 6 April 2024
    Il prodotto è indispensabile se si vuole rimuovere la pasta termica da una CPU, MOSFET, ecc.. . Pulisce perfettamente. A mio avviso la sola accortezza è quella di fare l'operazione in un luogo areato in quanto sprigiona un odore forte pungente e persistente. Dopo l'impiego è bene mettere la salviettina usata in una busta chiusa a gettarla nel cassonetto fuori casa.
