The joint can throw off your CPU temps by as much as 10 deg C, so it's critical to keep it clean.

Using the polish, you'll more than likely leave a residue. TP will also come apart quite easily.

An Acetone wash would be in order, assuming that it would dissolve the polish. If you do this, be aware of what Acetone is, and what it can do!

Some people report using some alcohol as well, or instead of.
