A can of air you can buy it for about £5 i use it on my pc when the dust get`s a bit mad.

the H70 is a sealed unit, it cant be cleaned.

well, you can take it apart but its a pig to bleed all the air out of it. need to fully submerge the rad in a bucket of coolant. i did this on an H50 to change the hoses to clear.

Wow mate dont think i would want to mess about doing that. I guess the can of air would do an "ok" job ?

I think people have interpreted cleaning in two different ways

Do you mean either

Cleaning the outside of the unit of dust and other marks etc

or

Flushing the inside of the radiator

Just the dust from the radiator

I wouldnt want to open the unit

Everyone should own a £25 inflatable bed pump saves me £ on canned air (which is incredibly overpriced).

As long as you have a narrow end or make one its almost as good as using compressed air.
