OK we all know by now that Sony's new box of tricks collects dust like a good'un. I thought we should compare and contrast dusting techniques. I am more of a feather duster man, however, my duster has a fully apposable joint, allowing me to get into all the nooks and crannies. Another favoured technique is to use an old sock over my hand to lightly dust away. DISCUSS!

Simply pull the end of your longsleeve t-shirt, jumper, jacket ( provided it's cloth and not leather ) or whatever else you may be wearing ( provided its cloth and not PVC.....:o ) then proceed to wipe over the surface of your PS3 in gentle strokes in the same style that you would mow the lawn.

Another method is to not actually clean it, but write stuff in it. YES! the PS3 actually doubles as a memo board if left in the open to collect dust, simply write your message e.g. Frank, ive left you for Gary and im never coming back....the kids are your responsibility now, Goodbye Dave x | That way when Dave gets home he can simply rub the message off using the obove method thus concealing the fact that Barbara left him for gary and thus meaning dave can just tell the kids that Barbara died in a car crash and is never coming back.....avoiding needless embarrasment :D

The PS3 has so many uses.

I have a Compressed Air Can but wasn't sure if it's safe to use on PS3.

I like to use a high pressure hose to ensure that dust, bacteria, viruses, and fungi cannot reside on top of my beloved PS3 unit.

Thats gross dude.

Anyway, I'm not so experienced in cleaning, but do those wipes with the alcohol in them work?...you know, like, rubbing alcohol. I forgot the name of the brand, but if anyone knows what im talking about, do those work?

After you dust it, wipe it down with a Bounce laundry sheet.

It will help to prevent future dust from statically clinging to your over priced sandwich maker :)

I just found the best way to clean it.... pour a meaty style dog food can over it, then let your dog clean it off. Same technique can be applied w/ a porn star and.......

This thread is HIGH comedy!  I personally use the ol' T shirt left on the ground technique.  The random black sock left on the ground also does just fine.  I am going to change my whole cleaning pattern and steal one of my wifes scivies.  She hates the PS3 as it is so this should be good for a laugh when she finds out.

THANKS FOR THE LAUGH GANG!

That is a really good idea, sadly, i don't have any that aren't coveredin scents and other chemicals. i bet they will work, but i wonder if they will streak, well i'll give it a shot when i get home.
