    I mean you really don't need that kind of thing to clean it out.


    That video gives you a good idea how to repaste and replace the thermal pad.

    A basic air duster on the fins every 6-12 months wont hurt.

    There are some pad guides out there to get the best performance:

    It's the DM3 so not exactly the same but gives you an idea of what you are looking at.

    "The small pad" could mean any of the pads.
