some type of powder/grain to clean dyson vacs.....
Original Message   Nov 23, 2011 1:26 pm
I was thinking....could you use maybe rice (smallest grain you could find) or maybe dry corn meal to suck up into a dyson regularly to clean out the insides of the cyclone thingies.......??????

Of course, you would have to do this before it was plugged, and make sure you had installed clean filters before doing this (and perhaps afterward too).......

just curious what the pro's out there might think about this......

by the way, both these methods work fantastically well for crystal goblets and decanters......just fantastic way to clean these things........

I would cook the rice and have myself a nice chicken and rice dinner. Personally the cyclones should be teflon coated. But that aint gonna happen.

The cyclones have to  cleaned with high pressure rince and dried manually.Trust me i tried the easy way out of this.It just would not come out right.........

Teflon doesn't repel dust though.
