I was using isopropyl and a cotton stick to clean the die. I did it previously on the same die to clean the MX4 and then applied the Kryonaut on a fully smooth/intact die, seems highly unlikely this was the cause.
So the only reasonable explanation is: it was fake.
I bought it from an Amazon...
I thought the same, if this was the common outcome this paste wouldn't be recommended.
So it comes down to two potential causes:
1. Userfail: might be that i wasn't careful/patient enough on the applying and/or cleaning process with Isopropyl, but would such behaviour cause this kind of residue...
Yes, it is working fine.
I'm still curious how this could happen, it doesn't look like the typical scratches you would expect (caused by IC Diamond for example) but more like permanent residue or maybe some kind of oxidation/alloy.
