You are right Richard, it's in the ReaderTips section of the April issue of FSM. Boy, senior moments are frustrating. I knew I read this tip somewhere. But, I had no idea where.

Now I have to remember to buy some........

Thanks for the help.

I use a large plastic container with an air tight cover. Not perfect but the good thing is it's cheap and durable.

Try looking for a large baking tin with the snap-on plastic cover next time you are at the supermarket, wal-mart etc. I have had good results with these, since out here in Arizona the dust is horrible.

I don't think there is an answer to that problem. No matter how hard I try I always manage to get some.

I usually keep a large, CLEAN box handy and cover my paintwork in between coats. Sometimes covering it with a box will even do some good. Then, when I'm ready for the next coat, I blow it off good with my compressor (to get rid of the stuff that still managed to get on it even with a box covering it!)

I need help keeping dust off my models between paint sessions, etc.

I thought I read a post about using an Endust compressed air product? But, I’ve searched the forums every way I can think of and can’t find the post.

As I recall (?), the Endust product not only blew the dust off the model but also created a static charge that helped repel dust.

Anyone recall this post?

What other methods do you use?

Thanks for the advise.
