Installation

Like any other heatpaste, the installation method is the same. All you have to do is clean your core and heatsink base, and spray some compound on.

The AK-460 is quite thick (hence low bleed) but its not sticky. This is a major problem and pretty much renders the included paste spreader useless.

As the 460 doesn’t stick to the cleaner core, it rolls up underneath the spreader, and you end up scraping it off, rather than spreading it on. The only way I could find to use the paste successfully was getting a blob onto the core, then simply pressing the heatsink down on top to spread it out. This won’t be as good as a thin spreading over the whole core though.
