List, the air compressor sounds like a good method to clean. I use a small shop vac that has reverse air flow. Definitely not as good as the air compressor, but not bad either. And a lot lighter to carry as well.

My preferred method for soundboard cleaning is compressed air.  Just got a new small one  - the Husky Easy Air from Home Depot that weighs only about 25 lbs.  I use it the same time as my vacuum.  Aim the nozzle and shoot, also holding the vacuum nozzle in the other hand.  I try to vacuum the piano first to remove the most of it, then hit it with both. The compressed air loosens dirt, and the vacuum gets the rest.  Just remember to put the compressor on a piece of cardboard so that any oil residue won't get on floors,  TP
