Switched from canned air to a compressor for sensor cleaning

Used to blow dust off mirror boxes with those little cans. Then a guy at a shop in St. Louis showed me how much pressure you actually need for delicate stuff. Anyone else find the switch saves money and gives better control?

Jumped on that bandwagon myself a couple years back and haven't looked back since. Spent way too much on those little cans that always seemed to run out halfway through a sensor cleaning. Now I just dial the pressure down, take my time, and save a bunch of money on top of it.

Switched to a small airbrush compressor myself after a sensor cleaning mishap with canned air left residue. Works great but I accidentally blew a cobweb off my patio furniture with it last week, which was oddly satisfying. Just take it slow with the pressure knob and you'll be fine.
