Hello, I have a simple question: I don`t have isopropanol with me. Can I clean the paste from the processor if I have extraction gasoline at hand? What I really want to know is whether the accidentally poured extraction gasoline will dissolve the PCB laminate.

PS I don`t know if I chose the right section, because I`m talking about laminate and gasoline.

extraction naphtha is suitable for this purpose.
Nothing will happen to the PCB if a random drop falls.

And in general, is it also suitable for cleaning traces of paste from the PCB itself?

Sure it will work, but why do you want to clean the motherboard? Did she get dirty while applying the paste?

I messed up the disc a bit because I didn`t notice that my fingers were in the paste...

Hello,
The safest way is to use isopropanol, e.g. cleanser, it is not expensive. Possibly another preparation with a similar use.
