    only use my mark 1 blower brush now, a year or two ago over my christmas leave the car was sitting for about a week, temperature outside got to about 42 degrees (about 107 farenheiht), a can of air was in my tool box and it blew the side right out of it. Haven't touched it since.
    The force will be with you always.

    plubbbb

    canned air is not air, its a gas. I tried to make my own canned air. I took a tire valve and soldered it in the bottom of the can. I then pumped air pressure in it with a tire pump. It's only good for about one squirt. waste of time. you need something thats of heavier metal to put more pressure in. We get about 4 cans of air at Costco for about 10-12 bucks. Hey the canned air thing i made might work if i had a heavier tank and a mini compressor in my tool case.
    too much weight. just need a screwdriver and do air blowing exercises daily, to keep your lungs at top notch air force potential. Ever tried blowing air from your mouth to clean a part off, it seems to go back in you mouth for some reason, never do it anymore, too many germs and crap stuck in the dust. End up coughing for an hour trying to get the dust bunny out of my throat.

    That's one of those lessons we all learn early on. Close your eyes before blowing the toner out of a crevase, because it just goes right in your eyes! :P

    Have you ever ignited the propellant in an aerosol can on purpose? Back in college I was really curious. Bic lighter + depleted can of Right Guard deodorant = an (8) foot long fireball!!!! It scared the shtt out of me!
