Cleaning Models

I was just wondering how everyone cleans or dusts their models? Is a canister of compressed air the best way?

Swiffer towels are real good. I would'nt use compressed air, it might knock my mirror off

I actually tried using the compressed air, I held it a little to close to the body and ummm, it was like ammonia. It stripped the paint right off. It sucked big time because it was my 3 ft US carrier that i had paint a lot of money for.

You can also use those green dusters that pick up using their static electricity

As long as the models havn't been sitting too long, a largish SOFT bristle brush works well. Just be careful around the mirrors and other delicate parts.

A large soft brush followed by a wax job.

You should if you can try and find somewhere so they dont pick up dust.
