SALTRU, dude, how long did you let the Thermal Epoxy cure before you put your PS3 back together?

Because I refered him to it the other day. It is a good thread that can collect good information. It will be a good thread to keep alive.
ne4ious, We assemble our SCR's etc Immediately. The heat will cure it.

Thanks Glassd, but i will let my Epoxy cure for at least 4 hours, am afraid the epoxy might not be hard enough and thus run off the sides. it is a bit chilly inside the house and think that might delay my cure time.
this is a very helpful post to keep alive. am sure many ppl will have this problem as they continue to reflow their PS3's more often.
what i do now on PS3's when Heat-Spreader is locked on to the Heat-Pad on the Cooling Fan is that i start to heat the PS3 mobo from the back side where the fan is located, do not heat for a long time, just enough to get the Thermal Paste gooey are able to seperate the Heat-Pads from each other.

Does the ps3 really turn back on as if nothing had happened? Or does it make you reformat or ask you to create a user as if it were new?
