Just be really careful. If the pressure is set too high you might blow the tuning slides out of the horn and damage tehm. BTW, it is against OSHA resulations to use compressed air to blow off your clothing. Their reasoning (which I feel is very good) is that, if you have a lsight cut in the skin and direct high pressure compressed air at it, it will actually form an air bubble under the skin. I have seen someone who had this happen to him and they were never able to get all of the air back out of his arm. If the cut involved a vain or an artery the result could be death.
Sotty for the "downer".
