STEP 4: REMOVAL OF EK-TIM INDIGO EXTREME:
To disassemble, release the clamping force from the heat sink/water block. The ETI may then be removed (intact) by first slowly peeling each corner. The ETI is designed to adhesively capture excess alloy
(from differences of CPU lid/heat sink interfacial roughness and planarity) on their surfaces. Any residual adhesive on the CPU or heat sink/water block may be removed with Xtreme Clean, acetone, or
xylene and a clean wiper or cotton cleaning swab. Residual alloy is best removed by wetting a swab with Xtreme Clean and gentling rotating the swab to loosen and collect the alloy particles.
Indigo Xtreme is a single-use interface product and any removal of the heat sink (pre/post-reflow) will require a new ETI. All interface material and adhesive residue must be removed and the
CPU and heat sink re-cleaned (with the surface cleaning supplies including in the ETI kit only) prior to the re-installation of a new ETI.
