i want to clean dust from my macbook pro retina late 2012. i was wondering how far do i need to disassemble my laptop to do a normal not extensive cleaning. i know i have to remove the bottom panel, and maybe more. what tools are required? just the p5 pentalobe?
A small soft paint brush to scrub the dust build-up and a can of Can’ed air to blow away the dust. If you are in a dry climate area (static) you may want to think about ESD protection (at least a wrist strap). Use care not to pull any of the small chips off with the brush.
