Probably the best tutorial on LM Ive seen. So many others are just slathering the stuff on like thermal paste. I have read somewhere, maybe Overclockers, people were saying to apply a very, very small amount to the heatsink first, and let it bake/dry in room temp for an hour before applying second coat. This may be the LM infiltrating the micro pores of the heatsink, kinda makes sense. After clamping and tightening the screws, the heatsink sits flush on the chip, flat. LM would only act as a microscopic buffer where the chip and copper dont meet in places.
I'm surprised this video has so little views. This is a very useful video for anyone looking into LM in general. Always better to be safe than sorry when it comes to this stuff. Albeit I am not going to be applying LM, there's some information here that still comes in handy for the ones wanting to remove stock LM jobs.
Explained really really well all the mistakes do's and don'ts No bullshit no background music Clear proper explanation U earn my respect and a subscriber 😅
I used PLASTIK-71 by Solins, which is a Russian Manufacturer and practically a default choice for everyone who works with electronics in Russia. For U. S. you can probably look into something from MG Chemicals. You need acrylic conformal coating which withstands high temperatures (at least 100°C). Make sure the packaging says that.

6:55 Why would that mess up the Liquid Metal?
Great video! Subscribed✅️
What type of acrylic coating did you use to prep the site? I cannot seem to find it here in the states.
