How to apply thermal grease? How to clean excess thermal grease?

Among the heat dissipation materials, thermal grease has a higher use value, which makes the CPU work at normal temperature and greatly prolongs the service life. However, it is not the same as most heat-dissipating materials. It needs to be applied in the correct way to avoid waste of materials and show a better heat-dissipation effect.

How to apply thermal grease?

1. Clean the base surface

Prepare a lint-free cloth and acetone to clean the dust and rust on the bottom of the CPU and heat sink. During the cleaning process, try not to touch it directly with your hands to avoid leaving marks.

2. Squeeze an appropriate amount of thermal grease

After determining the area to be coated with thermal grease, squeeze an appropriate amount of adhesive in the middle of the area. Put on a finger cot and press back and forth to apply the thermal grease evenly on the contact area. After applying a thin layer, carefully observe to see if there are any gaps or uneven places, and apply the adhesive layer evenly.

3. Wipe off excess thermal grease

During the application process, it is inevitable that there will be some excess thermal grease. Excess adhesive can be wiped off with a lint-free cloth without affecting the overall effect.

4. Install components

After the adhesive layer is flat and uniform, the components can be installed. When installing, do not move easily, so as not to affect the uniformity and thickness of the adhesive layer.

How to clean excess thermal grease?

Use a spatula directly to remove excess adhesive, or use a lint-free cloth. If you encounter stains that cannot be wiped off, you can wipe them with a cotton cloth soaked in a liquid such as alcohol, and the effect is good.

How to choose the right thermal grease?

No matter which brand of thermal grease is used, it should be operated correctly, and it is more reassuring to choose a trustworthy brand. Cooperate with powerful suppliers to be more assured, such as TENSNA, which focuses on thermal grease research and provides customized thermal grease application solutions with a wide range of uses.

In addition, when choosing thermal grease, you should pay attention to price and quality. Normally, TENSAN has the strength to provide high-quality and low-cost products, so that users can use them with confidence. Apply it correctly to achieve better heat dissipation.
