After taking off the IHS I applied Liquid Metal to the die to remove the indium. I believe I let it sit too long and I can no longer wipe it off, completely solidified. Don’t really know where to go from here- figured I would ask for help before getting crazy with a razor. Tia

Place in oven set to 70C.
DO NOT USE A RAZOR, you will chip your silicon.
Did we learn a lesson?
Heat the CPU. Pure indium melts at 156C but with the high gallium concentration it should melt below 100C, then you can wipe off the liquid metal.
