Introduction
I've had my laptop for +2 years now, and after a hot British summer noticed my laptop was getting very hot underneath.
After installing "[link|https://almico.com/speedfan.php|SpeedFan|new_window=true]" I noticed I was reaching CPU temps above 60 degrees celsius while idling.
I reviewed a few guides:

And went to work!
I've taken some photos while I went about it, and have shared them in this guide.
Much thanks to my wife who provided a helping hand with cleaning the fan blades.
