A very little. I use almost a translucent layer. Instructions can be found here (http://www.arcticsilver.com/arctic_silver_instructions.htm).

Cheers,

It's not just you, I did the same thing when I put together my first system this weekend. Lots of AS2 spilled all over my chip but using some acetone, goo-gone and alcohol cleaned it up well. I was hesitant about using the goo gone stuff but the AS2 homepage recommends it.
