Well, considering the recent issues I had with oil in the intake, I'm thinking there is some oil in the I/C's...

My IC is pretty clean now but I want it to look like new Well the first top layer are clean and still look like new, I guess it wasn't totally exposed outside. Now I want it to look close that if possible. Is there a way? If not, then it is ok since it is clean and I can live with it.
