Hi Guys

So i just got a can of "Sprayon Electro Cleaner" from Mica as they recommended it and claimed that they use it on all of their own computers to clean them. I was just wondering if anyone has had prior experience using this product and if it is safe to use to clean my computer. I have previously used cans of compressed air to clean the inside but they were out of these cans today and claim that this product is superior to compressed air. (Surprisingly it is cheaper as well) I have little experience with using products like these and have tended to avoid them as the last thing I want to do is damage my computer. If anyone has any advice that would be greatly helpful. (Here is a link to the product on Sprayon's website: http://www.sprayon.co.za/Electro-Cleaner.aspx)

During my own investigation on chemical cleaners it seems that most people advice spraying it onto a cloth first then wiping the desired area with the cloth. This contradicts what the instructions on the bottle are as they say just apply directly to the area to be cleaned then wipe off. Which would be the best way to do it?

Any advice on using, or not using this product, or just generally how you go about cleaning your own computer would be appreciated.

Thank-You
 
Have to say I wouldn't use it.

Don't you have a soft paint brush (new) and a vacuum cleaner you could use in lieu of compressed air?
 
You could use that stuff for cleaning connection terminals on a temperamental RAM module or Expansion
card, but that's about it.

A soft paint brush will work well, but I wouldn't use an ordinary vacuum cleaner inside the PC. Household
vacuum cleaners generate a lot of static, so you should only use a purpose-made vacuum inside your PC.
