I don't understand people that don't buy cheap cameras, because they don't have enough IQ for them. They don't buy third party battery grips, because some bloke on the 'net said that it may short circuit. But clean sensors at home with crappy kits, risking their camera like that...

I've had 10 DSLRs and only use a rocket blower as needed to clean the sensor.
Here is the spray cleaner I mentioned ; it's a polymer that you apply in liquid or spray form, it dries and you peel it away, along with all dirt, dust, etc, eliminating the chance of rubbing a particle creating a scratch.
I haven't used it myself, but read about it a few years ago ; I think it's quite expensive:

This thread is actually very educational. Never scratched a sensor before and didn't realize it was rather easy to do.
Every few months there is a thread at FM where somebody damaged a sensor through cleaning. However, this is the most expensive I've read about relative to the mid-priced body. If the camera were a couple of years old it might not even be worth repairing.
