How to Clean the Cuplex?
samedi 26 mars 2005, 02:06
Hi All,
I was wondering what's the best way to clean my Cuplex v1.0
I've had it installed & runninig since Sept 2001 (just with distilled water)
Now that I've upgraded to AMD64, I've had to take it all apart.
The outside (exposed to the air) is fine, still shiny copper!!!
but the inside has corroded a bit, though most of it looks like a thin film of algae.
I was going to use coke cola, but thought I'd better ask first :
Any idea's...?

Hi,
i think you should clean your CuPlex two times...
the first time you should use alcohol (Disinfectant or something else)...
The second time you sould use citric acid...
After this two cleanings you have a brand new CuPlex!

EDIT:
And don't ferget: only use distilled aqua with AC-Fluid (or G11 / G12)...

Citation de "NikoMo"
WARNING
don't use alcohol for cleaning the plexiglass part of the cuplex. it might damage or maybe destroy it.
for this you should use normal glass-cleaner (or simply water)
use just water.
most glas cleaners are based on alcohol.
Don't forget to clean your Copper with water after use the citric.

ketchup and a rag, someone had brought me a danger den cooled 6800 block. NO copper color just green monsters all around, Ketchup on to the rag or tooth brush then i used a metal polish called FLITZ to get the shine back.
Nice Tip aviddigi,
But I think I'll give that one a miss! ;D
Phew..... Got it right this time
