Doesn't really answer his question though.

 

You could use an air compressor if you have one, or disassemble the entire cooler and rinse the heatsinks with water.

I know, that's why I brought It up, like I said, I don't have duster cans.

there is literally no way they don't have compressed air cans where you live unless that is antarctica and probably you would still find one.

blow it like a NES cartridge :D

 

also, you could use an air compressor. be carefull when using this tough, because air compressors have a lot more power then the general duster can!

always hold your fans when doing something like this too!

In my currency, 1 Euro, is 3 (Local Currency), so it's 30 (local currencys), plus shipping, and the customs might charge an extra fee..

In Brazil, it's very unfortunate, used to live in the US, and I haven't checked in my local tech store, maybe they have it, but I highly doubt it since I searched on a "eBay" from here and I got no results...
