I've found for dust/dirt/debris our air compressor works quite nicely.
Those cans of compressed air work well, but sometimes they spew out
liquid if you're not careful... If you don't have a compressor, then
I would say either invest in one, they're great for blowing up bike
tires, basketballs, car tires, and all sorts of computer stuff. (Air
vents, keyboards, insides, cards, connector slots, ETC.)
I've *heard* a couple people say on here they heard of people running
them through the dishwasher, but I would highly not recommend that,
since the water can lead to corrosion, and if you don't turn off the
heat drying, you could melt parts of it. Also if the water catches it
wrong it could throw it around, knock off components.
Hope that's helpful :)
