Alright the dreaded question arises....the dust factor on my projectors. How to I take off the lense because I've taken out the entire item and pulled off the clips, but it doesn't seem to come apart. What would I need to do.... Thanks for any help possible!

Set the oven to 250, turn off the oven after heating, and put those bad boys in there for about 10 minutes. You have to heat the adhesive that keeps them together. Heh, you might as well put some new projectors in there while you're at it...

that doesn't look like dust. it looks like residual from condensation.
unfortunately, what gaffer suggested may be the only option to clean but
you really need to be careful. dont try to clean the chrome/silvered surfaces
unless you are sure what you're doing. the polycarb or lexan outer lens
should be pretty basic - prob gentle cleaning with Dawn and clean water
and microfleece rag. unless there is a lot of dust on the glass projector lens
itself, i'd shrug it off.....or try to clean from the rear with lonnnng qtip

what if i remove the projector and use an air nozzle?

try this. go to a computer shop and buy a can of AIR DUSTER, take out the projector and wash it. then use the air duster to get all the dust loose and then use a small vac to suck out the dust.

If that's a Depo, you'll not be able to pull the projector: the shroud
surrounding the projector lens will prevent complete rearward removal
out of the plastic surroundings. As such, your only recourse for
certain cleaning is to remove the front plastic outer lens.

Sure, you can inject air, but just be aware that you're just swirling it
around and whatever dust is dislodged may be redeposited onto another
surface at random.
