Great heatsink compound remover!

I have found the best thing to remove heatsink compound (old and new) is Simple Green All Purpose Cleaner. That stuff works great and is available at groccery and hardware stores!

I've always used IPA and GooGone, but I'll try the Green, thanks! The Green was developed to clean coffee makers I believe, so some sticky oils.
