Hi Emile,
Can I do the same for the inside of my desktop pc? Or would reversing the
vacuum hose be a bit too much force for the inside of a desktop pc? I have
used the vacuum, very gently, but not reversed, to get the worst of the cat
hair and dust out but there is still quite a bit that I cannot get out of my
fans.
Thanks, Debbie

Its better to use a new paint brush to remove compacted dust and hair from
fans etc, and only use a vac to pick up the bits. The thing is trying to
avoid creating ESDs which may damage expensive computer components. Its seems
a
very immotive and personal subject so expect a very large thread. With all
different shades of opinion as to what is safe practice.
The problem is static electricity, those little battery operated vacs they
sell for computers are pretty ineffective, I have a kit of minature tools that
fit throigh an adaptor to a full sizes vac hose. As it is pretty powerful I
point the tool from outside the case, toward its base.
I look forward to all the replies you will get.
Paris
