....From time to time I also use a can of air to clean, but I think I heard somewhere that you can force some of those little dust bunnies into the crevises and foul up your machine. Any one else heard of this?
I have heard that you shouldn't blow air into your machine, but I can give you a reason that ppl here in the south, especially, would benefit from....ALLERGIES. I bought ONE can of this canned air and used it on my serger i think, and all the dust blew back into my face and I had a bad reaction. Not the kind that makes you call the EMT's, but bad enough. I broke out into hives and in less than a minute was the most irritable feeling I think I have ever been in my life. I have been angry before, but this was a form of agitation that was unreal. My allergist said that was the dust/reaction! :shock: anyway...I won't be doing that again, lol. funny NOW! :D
