Hey guys just wondering before starting to put finish on, how do you guy clean out the grain of your wood from the sanding dust that gets packed in?
I use mineral spirits, but acetone works for me as well.
Tack rag works great
High pressure air works like a charm if you are equipped with a compressor.
Denatured alcohol. I usually dye them with anilines following that, then tack cloth em off, then spray.
Whats wrong with a good Vacuum cleaner. I used to use a damp cloth untill finding that I was having the odd De-lamination. I sand all parts with 50-60 grit then Vacuum them.
Rather stay away from chemicals. They smell up the garage and I have to burn the rags later so as not to cause spontaneous combustion.
Denatured alcohol, which we call "metho" short for metholated spirits.Haven't had any problems as it evaporates very quickly in seconds.
X2 on air pressure.

If you don't have access to a compressor, go to a Walmart or other dept. store and get one of those el cheapo paint brushes. They work great as dusters and konock the dust out of the grain well. I try to stay away from the chemicals on wood.
Also, if you use a compressor and blow it with air, make sure you have an oil and moisture trap on the line to keep from getting contaminates all over you wood.
Air pressure especially between sanding sealer coats. Blow it hard
