: Lots of opinions here. I'll pass along a tip from a furniture maker. To
: remove that coat of dust use the flat of your hand. Yeah, I know that
: sounds daft. But, I've never liked tack cloths so I've used this trick on
: furniture and boats.

I have seen painters who use this technique also. They are good painters and end up with a good finish so it must work.

Make sure you wash your hands after you have that big juicy hamburger for lunch though!
