Recently I have upgraded my desktop and installed a new operating system. I have purchased a new Corsair H50 for CPU cooling. The Corsair H50 provides you the feature of liquid cooling with very less installation processes. I wanted to remove the double sided tape of the Corsair H50 but I don’t know how to remove it. I want a solution describing the steps to remove it.

You can remove the double side tape residue of Corsair H50 very easily by making use of Scraping. You can scrape off the double side tape residue to remove it. You can even make use of clean razor blade and clean the residue by moving the blade across it. Do not scratch the residue; gently scrape off to remove the residue. Until the entire residue has been removed you will have to repeat this step. If you are working on a porous surface then you can make use of window cleaner to remove the residue without any mark left behind.

To remove the double sided tape residue from the back you can make use of some chemicals. Chemicals such as Goo Gone have the capacity to remove any type of residue. This adhesive remover doesn’t damage the surface. Spray the chemical around the residue and wait for some time. Then you can take a cloth, rub the adhesive and it will be removed.

You can remove the double side tape of the Corsair H50 by making use of steam. The steam loosens the tape; after the tape has been loosened you can easily remove it. While making use of steam to clean the surface of Corsair H50 makes sure that it will not be get damaged by heat or water. If some pieces of tape are remained then you can remove it by simply scrapping off.
