It is a great canned air product we order it by the case for our sewing business Was someone mentioning that you want to vacuum dust & particles (away) from your sewing machine rather than blowing them further into the machine? Can't blowing dust/particles into the machine impair the machine? Can those "in the know" enlighten us? Thanks, Dee |

Aero Dust Spray/ cleaning machines (DKiely33) quoted snip purchase a product called Blow OFF. I know this sounds perverted , but its what this product is called. It is a great canned air product we order it by the case for our sewing business --- Was someone mentioning that you want to vacuum dust & particles (away) from your sewing machine rather than blowing them further into the machine? Can't blowing dust/particles into the machine impair the machine? Can those "in the know" enlighten us? Thanks, Dee --- Yup. What she said; using canned air will drive dust and debris deeper into the machine's guts. Better to extract it with a soft-bristle brush or vacuum attachment. Cea |

Running a professional sewing room, we use this air product with every bobbin
change and et the end of every day to keep our segers and industrial machines free from lint. This keeps our stitches perfect and prevents build up that may cause problems. On our industrials we opn the bobbin cover and aim the air downward which blows the lint right out to the floor. Our sergers open outward completely and we air them from the side to propel the dust of the machines. Ive been sewing professionally for 13 years. weve been using this product the last 7 and my mahines are maintained every four months and always gets compliments from our service tech on how clean and well kept the machines are. That what I know and thats what works for us. WWW.avantguardflags.com Steven - Owner / Avant Gaurd Flags & Costumes |

That what I know and thats what works for us. WWW.avantguardflags.com Steven - Owner / Avant Gaurd Flags & Costumes --- Yes, Steven, I can see, from your post, where canned air is an excellent tool for business/industrial machine maintenance. I have an ancient industrial which opens in the same way, so I could use canned air for cleaning this machine without a problem. Most home machines, though, (and the majority of posters here use home machines, which is what I was addressing) have closed cavities, and the use of canned air merely serves to drive great wads of lint and fibers deeper into the machine guts, possibly into gears and motor areas. One of my machines has a complex metal/rubber drive belt, and I'd hate to think of lint getting packed into that pulley. From what I have read, it would be nearly impossible, and certainly quite expensive, to replace. The whole machine would have to be disassembled for belt removal and/or cleaning. I've been in a machine acquisition/thorough cleaning mode lately, and the amount of crud I've cleaned out of previously owners' machines is amazing. Any attempt to clean these using canned air would have caused more problems than it cured. Cea |

Sounds very CSI, Cea! Karen Maslowski in Cincinnati --- Sure does. Some of the machines I've dissected were a bit like cadvers, too. You know, Karen. I liked that show 'till it got too graphic. sticks finger down throat Cea (I can handle blood 'n guts, but some things come under the header of 'More Than I Want To Know'.) |

You know, Karen. I liked that show 'till it got too graphic. sticks
finger down throat It's so funny. At our house, that show is the one thing I try to watch (along with Joan of Arcadia; I know, I'm very ecumenical in my TV watching). Every time my husband, who is very squeamish about this kind of stuff, walks in the room, there is some horribly graphic scene on the tube. Naturally, he always looks. Then turns on his heel and leaves the room. Karen Maslowski in Cincinnati |
