Lifetime of a cart

[FamicomFreak]

Some say blowing on the contacts is bad because your breath is moist and will in time decay the contacts. Sounds true enough, though the process of decay would be slow. I imagine the best thing to do, and someone with more knowledge can confirm this, is to buy one of those aerosol air cans people use to clean keyboards and scanner glass.

That's not a bad idea. You are talking about those that are used to clean the inside of a computer right?

Will Perry-Air work, too?

Yes. They have that little straw attachment that gets into corners and hard to reach places.

I always try to avoid blowing into carts, but every now and then it just happens.
That habit won't go away I guess. I even blew on a PS2 DVD once.

The compressed air removes the superficial dust, to clean the contacts use isopropyl alcohol.

I was thinking that. I have been using it for a while and it works incredibly good. Thanks master
