Air-dusters work better, IMHO, & have less risk of static discharge.
Maplin's are a cheaper source than PC World & Poundland (when they
have them) a much cheaper source than Maplin's.

To really get the crud out of a heatsink, though, tends to require
removal of the fans, and possibly removal of the heatsink from the CPU
& consequent removal of the old TIM compound and replacement with
fresh TIM.

None of this is hard, but it's a bit fiddly.
