Most of the recommendations online is to use an compressed air can but there are none available in India.

i use a combination of the following things as per the need:

electric blower, vacuum cleaner, dry as well as a damp cloth, shaving brushes (2 types - one with soft bristles, and the other with hard), paint-brush (hard bristles), LCD-cleaner liquid, toothbrush, compressed air-can, a pair of cleaning anti-static hand-gloves with bristles having micro-pores.
 
Small paint brush for all components, shoe polish brush for keyboard and spectacles cleaning cloth for monitor and cabinet exterior.

Q.C Passed. Tested. OK
How often do you guys clean your systems?

I cleaned mine 3 days ago. And it was a great experience. Because it was the first time I opened my cabinet since i bought the desktop 4.2 years ago xD Had enough dust to create an artificial dessert. There's still some fine dust left in the creeks because I wasn't sure if I should clean it with a general purpose brush as static electricity might short the ICs. But well, reading this thread, I take it that there's no harm done in using small paint brushes. Time to find a brush and open up the case for the 2nd time. haha.

4.2 years is way way too long. Unless you were in an AC environ. Every 4-5 months is the max out.
