Is it ok ?

To hoover a laptop using the hose extension ..
Around the keys and grills ?
I've never heard of doing so - but it seems ideal to me ...

Yes I do this once a week Patsy on mine, but I use the brush attachment ...and make sure your putta is off, and go gently.

Thank you - kind Sir .....

Re: Is it ok ?

I just turn mine upside down and give it a bang on the back, was shown to do that when I did a mobile computer cleaning job. Quick easy and works was what my company told me and must say it seems to be true.

Re: Is it ok ?

I'd drop it !
Just couldn.t understand why there are little gadgets for cleaning them, when a hoover seems the best option to me, quick too ....

I turn mine upside down and give it a gentle tap on the bottom.
I know someone who used the vacuum on their keyboard and it sucked a key off, the only place I use a vacuum on mine is on the air grids to keep the fan free of dust.

Re: Is it ok ?

I usually run my vacuum, with brush, over the keyboards, on both desktop and laptop. Sometimes I just use a wide clean paintbrush to wipe the dust away.

That's a useful little gadget.

Re: Is it ok ?

I turn the keyboard upside down, I use a vacuum cleaner with brush. And every once in a while, when the sides of the keys look really disgusting (like, about now), I pry off the keys and clean 'em with old fashioned soap and water.
