Description

ARCTIC MX Cleaner Wipes (40 Pack) – Limonene-Based Thermal Paste Remover (Residue-Free)

The ARCTIC MX Cleaner is a purpose-made set of 40 individually packaged cleaning wipes designed to remove old thermal paste quickly and cleanly from CPUs, heatsinks and GPU coolers. If you’re repasting a processor, rebuilding a PC, or changing a cooler, these wipes help you get a spotless contact surface for better thermal performance.

At a glance: 40 pre-moistened wipes (each 115 × 115 mm) that dissolve dried thermal compounds (including ARCTIC MX-2/MX-4) and help remove stubborn residue from thermal pads without smearing. Individually sealed packs keep wipes moist for longer—ideal for hobbyists, repair shops and PC builders. 

Why MX Cleaner is better than tissues or household paper

  • Residue-free removal: loosens paste so it lifts away cleanly instead of spreading over the IHS/heatsink
  • Effective on dried paste: dissolves old, hardened thermal compound so it’s easy to wipe off
  • Gentle formulation: limonene-based and contains no alcohols or benzenes, designed to be effective while gentle on metals and alloys
  • Individually packed: airtight single-use sachets help prevent wipes from drying out

 

Eco-friendly active ingredient (official)

ARCTIC states the MX Cleaner uses 100% limonene extracted from citrus essential oil and is fully biodegradable (wipe and cleaning solution), with no added scent-altering chemicals.

FAQ: Frequently Asked Questions 

 

ARCTIC MX-Cleaner Wipes — FAQ

What are they and what do they remove?
Limonene-based cleaning wipes designed to dissolve and lift old or dried thermal compounds and stubborn pad residue from CPUs/GPUs and coolers, leaving a clean surface for fresh paste. 
What’s in the formula?
100% limonene (citrus-derived). No added alcohols or benzenes. Biodegradable wipe and solution. 
Are the wipes individually sealed?
Yes — the pack contains 40 individually packaged wipes to keep them moist until use. 
What size are the wipes?
Each wipe is approx. 115 × 115 mm
Do they leave residue?
The solvent loosens paste so it can be lifted off cleanly, avoiding smearing common with tissues. If any trace remains, a quick final pass with a fresh wipe or a dry lint-free cloth finishes the surface. 
Are they safe on metal surfaces and PC parts?
Limonene is widely used as a gentle yet effective cleaner on metals/alloys. Avoid contact with powered electronics; apply to cool, disconnected hardware only. 
How do I use them?
Power down and unplug. Let components cool. Open one pouch, wipe the IHS/heatsink to dissolve paste, then lift away. Repeat with a fresh wipe if needed; allow a brief air-dry before applying new thermal compound. 
Any safety precautions?
Contains limonene — can irritate skin/eyes and is harmful to aquatic life. Use in a ventilated area, avoid eye/skin contact, and wash hands after use. Do not charge/use near liquids; do not dispose into drains. See SDS for details. 
Do they smell like citrus?
Yes — the product uses natural citrus limonene. Scent may be noticeable but dissipates; ARCTIC does not add masking fragrances. 
How do these compare to isopropyl alcohol (IPA)?
Limonene wipes are purpose-formulated to lift paste and pad residue with minimal smearing. IPA also works, but these pre-saturated wipes are convenient and biodegradable. (Personal preferences vary.)
