dusty speaker element

[puremongo]

I decided to pull my old mark III apart for some dust cleaning, and I discovered that parts of the speaker element were REALLY dusty. I guess noone had bothered with this since it was built in 1989.
How would I clean this without destroying it? I guess putting it in water over night isn't going to help. :wink:

By "speaker element" I assume you mean the speaker cone? Dust the front and back use a soft paint brush.

Correct !!! I use a small acid brush, paint brush and a hair dryer on cool.
Do no even think of putting any moisture on that thing, the dust cover alone will peel like an orange with every swipe of a damp cloth.


Be gentle !!!

Thanks guys!
I though the speaker cone was the center of the speaker, but what do I know, I'm swedish.
Paint brush shopping tomorrow for me.
