Dirty domes ????

[wmgwizard]

I have a couple of pairs of A/D/S tweeters that been sitting around for a while. During this time they seem to have attracted every spec of dust in the cabinet where they were stored. Other tweeters I have cleaned with some low pressure compressed air and a small paint brush, not these sticky buggers.
Any suggestions or recommendations on cleaning the domes without damaging them?

Thanks

Yes, don't.

Seriously, those are coated silk domes. Anything you might use to clean them could easily damage or even remove the coating , leaving the silk exposed. Just put the grilles on and pretend you never noticed the dust.

"Ditto" to what the two members said above The Peerless dome tweeters on my Polk 10's have bits of dust all around as well, what wont come off with a light puff of breath just stays on. Try to ignore the fuzzies, and enjoy those ADS
