I will not be swapping chips in this anytime soon and it will take care of any condensation that might arise.

(Was that a magic cape you had on in the video? )

LOL it was like 6am or earlier i was in my housecoat.
I tried sealing off the cpu with blue tape in that video but it looks like you did it different than i did.

Still like you said, If a person plans on swapping out cpu's then eraser is better in that area. Because once you pull up an edge the rest pulls off with it.

Although i have skinned over skin to repair pulled up edges and that works great.
