What the best way to Clean the inside of a Fan?
I talking about the ball bearings. I've seen a number of videos and read a lot of articles but I wanted to ask the experts.( I'm not trying to kiss Azz )
Could somebody give my some good suggestions.
Thanks.

Usually not accessible but compressed air works with anything that is accessible.

Geez.... he needs a 12 minute video to show a 10 minute procedure .... but how old is that fan ?

Most fans I have seen in the last 10 years...you won't be able to do that. There's no opening under the label and you'd have to drill away the plastic to get at that retainer ring.
