Re: tough cleaning
Use either air blower or paint brush. Do not use anything wet.

Re: tough cleaning
i tried a paint brush but i see some thermocol on its base.
i need something to clean the contacts and also to extract the bits so that the card fits in properly.

Re: tough cleaning
if you have tongs (small ones), you can use them to extract thermocol bits
but be careful

Re: tough cleaning
I'd advise against using a paint brush. The hair can get inside the slot. I'd advise you to buy a can of compressed air and use it to clean the slot. In fact you can use this to clean any electronic component inside the computer.
