Yes, it is a bit nerve wracking but once you've done it, you'll never look back.

Don't like the sound of the VD smear, but I'm sure the name shouldn't put you off.

The Arctic Butterfly is the best non invasive tool to use for dust, but if you haven't cleaned the sensor for a long time the static charge method may not move the more stubborn areas of fouling.
You will probably have to use a "wet" method as well, to remove the more sticky areas of contamination.
