not many of you would have seen my thread about preparing a motherboard for sub zero benching in which i linked to one of the user's suggestions from OCAU.....washing the motherboard in sink with soap water and everything and then baking it a little in the oven to dry it

he's done it a load of times and they all work great LOL LOL







here is something amusing......................this is a reply i got from a fellow OCAU member...........

I've worked with the same brand of the tape before. I believed I purchased it from Jaycar.. Not sure though, been a while

Anyways, It's a great product. Easy to apply and does the job perfectly! But Becareful and MAKE sure non of it gets inside or under the Socket. I suggest you get a set of cheap artist brushes from your local cheap outlet [Go-Lo] and start you way slowly.

Now for removing Ex- Grease and all of the nasties.. I personally Prefer to give my mobo's / hardware baths followed by a Metho Rinse. Then they go to the oven on VERY low heat setting. I usually set it for 24C.. Let it sit there then for a few hours. Keep checking every 30mts or so [Trust me.. you don't want the smell of silicon in your oven]

I've done this numerous times over the past and saved/brough to back tons of hardware from it. Just make sure it's fully dry before applying voltage.

Anyways here are some pics of my P4C when I washed it after some action; for refrence



Hope that helps
