that seems familiar from removing it from things re use of water may be an issue i wonder if electrostatic and air flow might be best

the air is dry
the dust is very sticky
water makes it worse and has its own issues

electrostatic and suction seem reasonable

there are things to consider such as proof of concept and practical engineering

i know about vac fettling so that part would be plausible, would a decent field voltage in the "snout" get the stuff loose without harming the panel?

if you rub a balloon does it get covered in dust faster than an unrubbed one?

what an odd science question, but a simple way to learn more about this dust

I can try the balloon experiment when I'm back in the field - just arrived in Blighty after a pleasant couple of weeks in Sardinia
