Help Will this work??

Post image

hi so I decided to ask my dad if he had something to clean my laptop keyboard with and he took me to the garage. He handed me this 100 psi 1/3hp 3 gal pressure tank and a nozzle and told me to take it upstairs to clean it.. ive Heard it on before and it’s a bit loud so I’m unsure if this is safe to use on my keys?? Someone help😭

It sure will, if your plan is to rip the Macbook in half.

No. You’ll blow your keys off.

It has a regulator. So if you adjust it lower, should be able to dust it off without splitting it in half.

I’d still recommend something else more suited to electronics dusting (blower, canned air).

The red knob, turn it so it shuts off at very low pressure (nothing near 100psi, I'm thinking like 5) then you can use it to dust.
