    Bodywork dust

    Over the summer I took my Grand Wagoneer in for body work and paint. All the glass was out, interior out, etc. The only thing left was the steering wheel. The shop must have forgotten to cover it or didn't think about it. All the small texture areas of the steering wheel are now filled with dust. I have tried a number of de-greasers, soaps, even brake cleaner on a rag...nothing seems to be able to remove this dust from those crevices...

    Anyone know what else I can try?

        Compressed air, various brushes and vacuum cleaner.
        You will chase it/smear it all over hell using any kind of liquid/spray/aerosol etc.

        After you knock it all off/loose and suck up most of it then you can clean with your choice of cleaners.

          It's like you're unraveling a big cable-knit sweater that someone keeps knitting...and knitting...and knitting...and knitting...
