Oh my goodness. Glad I've never used it. I just get tweezers in there and a brush. I bet that lady never will either. I hope.

Oh, thank you so much for that! I had no idea.

When you go see your gynecologist for your yearly inspection, you will see the perfect cleaning tool for a machine. The doctor uses a little brush that looks like a mascara brush on a 6 inch stem. Ask the doctor for a few of them (unused, of course!). My doctor llaughed and gave me several that I shared with sewing friends. These long handled little brushes are great!
Some of the cosmetics counters have similar brushes, but without the long stems. The sales ladies sometimes share those with customers.

A pic is worth a thousand words! No question now about using it.

When I saw this link, I was shocked to see how much was under there! I was one for using canned air, but from now on, lint brush for me!!

I am glad that I was able to share this with everyone.

Thank goodness I told my husband that I heard you should not use canned air! I showed him this picture and he said good thing I didn't use it.
