Air Compressor for Interior Cleaning/Detailing

Post by beefio » Fri Aug 29, 2014 10:11 am

Hi All

Has anyone used an air compressor for interior cleaning/detailing?

Can you recommend a cheap one that'll do the job?

Cheers

Stuart

Yep and they're good for keyboards too, get's the biscuit crumbs out nicely. I got a few (as they were on offer) from Maplins, called Dust Off, comes in an aerosol with a small tube as the nozzle, perfect in my opinion.
Bilstein shocks, Piper 4-2-1 manifold, Daytona, Vader cold-air induction, custom Z and F Stage 2 re-map, Electric boot release, braided hoses, Blue Magnecor leads, Technozen relays, Stage 1 head, BMW Angel Eyes headlights, "MG" puddle lights.

Have to agree with Adrian, it gets right into the nooks and crannies

Doesn't look like you can buy one in the UK...

Normal compressor with air gun attachment should do the trick and you can buy lots of other toys to plug on aswell
