Masters degree in Physics = intensive training in understanding "how
things work" = intensive training in "how things fail".

The air can is not as good as the freon can, but not as problematic as
to the environment. If there is no danger of sparking, a can of butane
for refillable lighters will make a nice spot freeze solution.

Yes, I did like McGyver but thought it was a bit far fetched most of the
time.

Be advised: butane cooling is dangerous as it is flammable. the spot
freezing can also accelerate problems related to a poor solder joint due
to rapid contraction.
