You can pick up bottles of compressed air at office supply stores that work well for dusting out anywhere in the case. For getting the dust off of fans I usually just use my finger to wipe it off over a trash can

or, you can remove the sticker and hard cover, take off the C clip and yank off the fan blades.

then wipe, insert, insert C clip (white plastic thing) and put back rubber/hard cover and sticker.

Finger it (pun intended) or get some of that canned sniff-it-like-paint-to-get-a-buzz-chemical-reaction-in-a-can faux air

He wants to clean it, not lap it.

I usually use a paint brush (one that hasn't been used).
