>>11144221>quick dip in waterThe only time I've seen this that it really made sense was in a few YT videos that I was looking at to try to figure out how to get grease pencil and sharpie marks off a lot of collectibles I bought (about 9 toys for $9.99 plus shipping: about $6-7) where I only wanted two of the figures. I was going to sell the rest but ended up donating them to my local Salvation Army since they don't bleed collectors like Goodwill does with their shitty e-commerce site.
Anyhow, one of these guys put all the dirty messy toys he got at swap meets or garage sales into a bath of soapy dish soap (but again NOT for dust, but to clean off paint, ink, etc.) BUT he also put them through a light spin (low heat, for like sweaters) in the dryer, in a pillow case that was tied up, to get rid of all the water AFTER he had also let them sit in his back yard in the direct sun for a bit. He's in Texas so obviously plenty of hot warm air as well.
I've seen enough painting videos where they talk about wiping paint off and making sure it doesn't get into pins and joints to know that a 'quick dip' would likely otherwise be a BAD idea, especially just to dust.
Something like an PC air blow can - while stupidly expensive - would potentially cause FAR less damage.
>>11144108>paper towelsFair points but a lot of folks use paper towels in the kitchen and kitchens rarely have doors.
>>11144123It's called a studio. That's what I had before, you really just need to DUST a lot. I didn't bother collecting much since I didn't have the space but now that I do, even with central air, which I don't want to run constantly, it still gets dusty.
