cleaning the frame

If you are replacing the frame (e.g. in a display assembly with frame guide) you can skip this step since your new part should be clean.
Scrape off the old thermal pads with an opening tool or a spudger.
If you want to go the extra mile you can clean the rest with a Q-tip and some isopropyl alcohol (>97%).
