Unfortunately today I did a stupid!

My cooler the 34 esports duo requires paste (mx4) to be applied to the cooler not CPU. I did this and assumed I had installed my CPU but duh I didn’t

so I got some non conductive mx4 on my socket am4, it not substantial but a couple of spots and all holes seem clear enough as I tested my 5600x seating and it sits and locks with no paste coming out on the pins either

many advice on removing it?
