Compressed Air Cleaning

[emus]

I don't know if this would work for me.
My air compressor is a 60 gallon 160 PSI industrial sized air compressor.
I guess i could just hold the atty at arms length.

What would be a good regulated pressure to blow through it?

Around 5 PSI, Maybe 10 PSI? I would hate to blow the guts out of my 510 atty's

If your compressor uses oil, some oil will blow by the compressor rings and contaminate the air with small quantities of 30W oil. yummy.

Can also use a small balloon or camera lens blower.

It is the only actual compressed air refillable system I know of.

Contrary to what they say on the website, you can refill it from a bicycle pump!

i use a can too works out pretty well, and no aftertaste if you let sit overnight

I have some can's I got a few years ago on ebay that you can hook up a air or bicycle pump to to fill with air and then works just like a can of compressed air with no nasty chemicals involved. I use them quite a bit for blowing out atty's.

Edit: found a link to some like mine... http://store.wagaero.com/product_inf...oducts_id=4393
You can also google for "rechargeable aerosol can"

I made a re-circulating pump to cycle lemon juice through an atty awhile back, while it did clean it amazingly well, I ended up screwing up the very fragile insulating bushing for the center post and the atomizer never worked again - I couldn't even use it to make an adapter. Be careful using compressed air, you may end up killing an otherwise good atomizer.

ETA: It blew all of the fiber wick around the coil out as well, that stuff isn't in there all that well.
