Cheap Dust Remover for large negatives

A happy discovery is that the Pledge "Grab-it" cloths do a great job of
removing dust from negatives. They are intended for household dusting and
can even be attached to a special mop for floors. Using "an
electrostatic" principle with no solvents or polishes, they seem do work
just fine for negatives. There is a small nylon fiber embedded every 1/4
inch (for strength) so if you get heavy-handed and try to "scrub" some
crud from a neg, there's a chance of scratching. But for normal cleaning
before going into the printing frame, they're working just great!

No, I don't have stock in the company that makes the Grab-it cloths. :-)
There's a similar competing brand of cloth (you'll see them in the
grocery store) that probably does just as well.

Hope this info is useful to someone!
