Question External Dust Cleaning Questions.

Hi, I went to photograph the World Rally Championship here in Mexico, but on this days there is to arid and dusty, so I returned with a camera and lens with dust, Id never opened the camera for lens change or another purpose so the dust its only external my equipment that days were a 7D and a 70-200 F2.8L IS II USM, so it supposed to be weather resistant. Is it possible to clean in home without sending to service to canon?

Thanks.

Just buy a can of air and give it a blast. Should removed most of the sand and anything else can be removed with a damp cloth but not wet.
