Cleaning the insides of your PC.

What do you guys do on a general clean? What do you use to get rid of stubborn dust etc.

I did a search for this but couldn't find any specific threads!

Compressed air to agitate the dust and a hoover to remove it (don't touch any components with it though)

Dyson with brush attachment. Probably not a good idea but I've never broken anything and it works a treat

Where do you guys buy your compressed air from?

I got a compressor! Buying compressed air feels wrong

Compressed air cans personally.

Working at the local Ford dealer, I have access to filtered, and dried compressed air. I take my PC into work and blast it out.

New paint brush to loosen the dust, and a well positioned vacuum to collect it. I do mine once a month and because of the dust filters doesn't get to dusty.

Hoover, but I make sure not to touch anything inside. Must buy a tin of compressed air and try it out.
