I never even thought of make up brushes. I've just been blowing the dust off on a weekly basis but it always left me dizzy and this is the perfect solution so i went to coles and got the exact same 4 piece brushes as yours for $20. I was suprised they were identical as i live in Australia. Thanks for the tip mate.

Omg thank you, I googled “how to dust collectibles” because it’s been driving me crazy for YEARS that no matter how much I try to dust collectibles with a microfiber cloth there’s ALWAYS grooves or nooks that the cloth can’t reach and this works amazing. My things look brand new and it was super quick, way faster than all the toiling with a cloth that wasn’t getting the job done right. :)

I tend to use an old feather duster that I found at an estate sale, it's very gentle and gets into surprisingly small spaces because of the little plumes or whatever on each feather. makeup brushes sound like a great, inexpensive way to help preserve figures as well, I appreciate this video

Amazingly, I haven't seen much discussion about dusting in the collector groups. I started using makeup brushes when I collected sixth scale figures and found that they work great. Cool to see someone else using them ( :
For a while, I used compressed air cans to supplement and sort of finish off my dusting. Besides not lasting long and losing pressure after only a few moments, the initial pressure is too severe and I actually blew some paint fleck off my Sideshow Rogue One Darth Vader PF. Couldn't believe it. I've since switched to a small, handheld electric air duster and it works great. The air pressure is plenty; not enough to cause damage, but enough to do the job - and it produces consistent air flow for up to 15 minutes of continuous use.

11:15 I was called out and immediately went to dust my figures. Definitely need to start a routine, especially since I'm gonna be getting more and upgrading my display 😅 Thanks so much for this video, helped me out a lot!

Half of my collection is also exposed, like yours. I dust once a month and i use a makeup brush and a dust cloth for the shelves. So far, it has worked really well and i have been collecting for some years. Can't wait to read all the sugestions below. And btw, loved the "Alfred Story", that was amazing :)

I use a small electric blower I purchased on Amazon. I also use the make up brushes but I put tape around the metal part of the brushes to avoid any accidental scratches. Thanks for the Video Chris.

I use a electronic duster in conjunction with the makeup brushes. Also the air purifiers really help.

Thank you for this video it's stopped my worries over my unbowed figure collection

[TaiMizuki]

People use similar brushes at museums. I am surprised I never thought of this. Thanks for sharing!

[siunkii]

i'm not a collector for figurines but i do have a tendency to collect pretty items and decorations for shelves and workdesks. i never really had the know-how for dusting or cleaning (how often, with what for different items) and i got annoyed for not figuring it out as i'm not the smartest on finding things by myself.... soo i never decorated for real, which was a shame. so this was a great great help!! thank you so much. i can finally start with my own cleaning routine for the items i like :)

Nice collection. I might add using air spray can too and for those who pick up figures or statues to dust and or clean, to use plastic gloves as to not get any smudges or natural oil from hands on collection.

I was thinking of this the other day on how I could clean my Statues since I’m a beginner collector and BOOM!!! You answered my question!!!! Thanks so much for this quick tutorial!!! Love your BATCAVE... still I’m on Batmans Villains side!!!

[statesminds]

I have a lot of anime and video game figures and statues and recently started getting more expensive and worry about dust. I had been use air duster on some spots but the makeup brushes and other tricks a good idea. Thank you

[yahned]

Came here for funko pop dusting, make up brushes are a great idea! thank you!

[Devilbruh]

Nice! I have 7 statues coming in/pre ordered I just got into collecting 1/4-1/3 so these tips will definitely come in handy as I never took dust into consideration and all my 1/8s got caked in dust

[VerelLupin]

Never would have thought of makeup brushes. Just started cataloguing my collections and saw so much dust.

Buying brushes asap and starting a new cleaning regimen. Thank u

[sankai]

Perfect suggestion, thanks a lot :)

I've been struggling to dust my figures - after my initial attempts with the swiffer you showed at the beginning a year ago, I changed to other methods. Usually I used a microfiber tissue and on parts where it gets stuck, I used cans of pressured air. I got some from my father and some from a nice deal. Now that I've reached the last can I was wondering if there was a better method, which are more environment friendly and less waste producing than those cans... and yesterday I got the idea of getting some brushes!

I was going to buy some bigger paint brushes but then thought I should first check out other ideas and first search result was this video, which made me go "of course!"
So tomorrow I'll get some make-up brushes!

I use EcoTools make-up brushes. Nice, comfortable wooden handle. Excellent bristle quality(soft with nice snap). Doesn't break the bank.
*Swiffers are dangerous. They WILL eventually snag your statue.
*Dust Off(canned air) is risky. The condensation that can sometimes come out of the can is really bad for the paint job(pitting).

Dust is a nightmare in my batcave😭
I use the swiffer duster too, and it scares the crap out of me. Gotta get some makeup brushes I guess.😩
👍👍✌
