looking for canned air
i remember someone saying they got a refillable can of air that they can pump up with like a bicycle pump or a compressor.
does anyone know where to get those?
also does anyone know of a can that you can put liquid in and pressurize and re-use in a similar fashion?
something that i can put a cleaner like denatured alcohol in and add air to pressurize it and use it like nitro cleaner.
i have a fire extinguisher that you can add any liquid to and pump it up and spray it. fun on Halloween !!!
im sure they make one in a handheld size but i cant find any.
any links?

You can usually find the refillable cannisters at a hardware store where they sell the air compressors. I think I've even seen them at Wal Mart. If you want the aerosol then the electronics section in Wal Mart would be a good place to look. I use aerosol to blow out my head before I take my glo plug out. It works great but don't use it it your engine is hot. Long bursts can get cold fast.

A buddy of mine bought one of those refillable cans off ebay. He puts denatured alcohol in it and works pretty good. I'll ask him the name of the seller in case the guy has some more

The refillable cans I'm talking about are like an air compressor without the compressor. I think they hold about 5 gallons of air & you can fill them up at a gas station for a quarter or maybe even with a foot pump like you mentioned. That would take a lot of pumping though. Here's one from Sears' website.

Thats one.. or theres one they sell at CompUSA called Re-Air.
I think its 25 bucks. A RIPOFF.. but if you need it, you need it.
It should be located near the mousepads (used to work there..lol).

haha, there ya go, get one of those huge squirt guns at wal-mart and blow your car away with denatured alcohol . No, but seriously, a little squirt gun doesn't have enough pressure, all the dirt will just drip down getting stuck in cracks instead of being blown off.
