Alternate use for the Metrovac Sidekick

[Calendyr]

Hey guys, had to do a test video to see if Youtube would like my 4K content so I
did a 1 minute video with the Sidekick to clean my computer

It's not high quality stuff, I did this in about 30 mins total but I needed to see if
the sound from my new microphone would be ok and if Youtube would render
all the resolutions from 144p to 2160p with my template from Vegas Studio 14.

I learned that in order to see all resolutions on Youtube, you can't use Internet Explorer... I did not know that!
So if you want to watch it at best resolution, you need to use Google Chrome.

Here is the link, enjoy

Cool idea.

Didn't look to see where you were from, and during the video I said to myself "Damn, he sounds like my buddy Al from Montreal".

Lol

Very nice!

Metro actually sells one specifically for computer dusting. It looks exactly like the sidekick. Im sure it just has a "de-tuned" motor lol.

Would make sense if you clean a lot of computers. I found that the air pressure was perfect for computer cleaning, no need to tune it down. Just stand a bit farther away. It was much faster than using air cans, and I feel it is less risky than using a compressor since the volume of air is wider.

I use with a few hoses from my Vac N'Blo to dry the dog. And to blow off the driveway after mowing. Small but powerful!

Small but powerful!

I agree. Small but powerful.

Super handy. Anyone that does not own an air compressor would love this tool. Plugs in anywhere, powerful filtered air.


I listed this is a top tool to have if starting a detail business at one of my Mobile Tech Expo classes this year. It's one of my top 10 car washing tools.


I also use it to speed dry tire coatings.

Good application outside the "detailing window"! Go Sens, eh?
