[QUOTE="Geeky1, post: 497809, member: 34442"] Very good point. My experience has been that any lint left by the dry paper towels is picked up by the alcohol-soaked q-tips, but it's a very valid point that I never really gave much thought to. :) Personally, I stopped recommending using cloths (though I use microfiber cloths myself) to people after a couple people complained that the thermal compound stained them. :Grimmace: [/QUOTE]
