    This is a problem with using compressed air for 
cleaning. Mostly, it just moves the dust around. A vacuum 
cleaner is best, backed up with those dust cloths to which 
the dust sticks. Compressed air is fine for small areas like 
negatives or lenses but not for general cleaning. This also 
goes for electronic equipment.
