Cans of compressed air

If I remember correctly incredible corruption sells some. They call it dust buster.
Yeah, you get a cleaning pack that has a compressed air can with it. If any of you guys live in Pretoria, you can get cans at New World in the Menlyn shopping mall.

Or the camera shop in Hatfield, I forget it's name, it's next to Lizard Lounge, old Maloney's.
 
Nice guys. I stay in PTA. How much is it for the can of compressed air?

Nice guys finish last. You're running out of gas. Your sympathy will get you left behind.

Eh couldn't help myself. Green Day. :)

On topic: Mine cost less than R100. Can't remember the price though as this was last year.
 
Personally I think completely opening up a keyboard is the trick, just using compressed air is gonna leave a lot of much in there. Keyboards get oil from your fingers and food in them, compressed air doesnt take THAT out.

missions... :(
 
Worth the effort, seriously, I think there was a study that found the PC keyboard had more bacteria and germs than public toilets...../shudder
 
I WILL walk away with the can, no matter the cost. I can't handle another 3 hour dust cleaning session in my PC involving a screwdriver, 500 screws and a toothbrush!
and are your hands black afterwards? :D

Sorry, couldn't resist :p

Best (and most permanent) i've found so far is to get a fairly heavy duty vacuum cleaner that can blow air in addition to the usual functions. Works really really well :)
Just be sure not to put it into vacuum mode!! It creates static electricity which will likely fry some of your components!

Yes, but some bacteria is worse than others. i.e. I'd venture a guess the type on a toilet bowl is gonna be worse for u than the germs on a keyboard ;)

It's got a different attachment point if you want to blow air. Rather hard to get it wrong, if I'm honest :p
 
I use i blower, nice turbine throttle air, clean in under 30secs, and you put your pc back on... No hassle no fuss. Works everytime.


I borrowed one from work several weeks back to do that.

Would blowers not have the same issue with static electricity that vacuum cleaners do?
