this is a question, i need advice on, i usually just run a vaccum cleaner around the PS3 an try to suck out all the dust in the vents, but do i need anything else? like something to blow away the dust from inside? maybe a can of compressed air? because i saw some pics on the forum posted by users, showing dust on the inside and it looked bad, so im wondering what i need to keep it dust free

Keeping the room you have it in clean pretty much helps. Vacuuming/sweeping/dusting the room will minimize on dirt in the air.

Alot of people have been using microfiber cloths and car wax lately.

The best thing to do is to use a vacuum cleaner suction hose attatchment to suck out the dust. I highly recommend against using compressed air. The reason is because it will scatter alot of the dust around inside the system, which may settle on things you don't want dust on.

Nope, but judging from pictures I've seen on here, it seems to work pretty well.

Car wax would actually make sense to help keep and get the dust off, look how many parts of your car are plastic and get waxed. The filth def comes off quicker/easier with the wax. I wonder if normal dusting products like pledge would work as well, since some of them put down a wax coating to protect.
