how to remove the stock thermal paste from processor without buying articlean?
can use alchohol?

well i cleared the thermal paste using cd-spray(spray on a cotton and wipe).
then apply a think layer of thermalright paste(what ya expect, i don't earn the $$)
diffrence between stock cooler and G-Power now around 5C. Is it normal or need longer time for thermal paste to burn in or need more thermal paste?

yes, it's mercury, from what i read it's extreemly hard to apply and doesn't work with aluminium as they will be corroded by gallium inside the liquid.

a few links:
