I know you don't want wax in the crevices and Tack Cloth has beeswax in it. I thought if you could tack up a sponge with a beeswax by impregnating it a little bit that might help you get to the fine nooks and crannies. Using a high quality paint brush to brush the dust out is another option but it will be tedious. | |
