A Tack Cloth removes loose dirt, hairs and so on from surfaces about to be painted.
They may be bought very cheaply from builders merchants, or are easy to make using a mixture of a little linseed oil, a few drops of terps & glycerine. The mix is stored in an airtight jar, and applied to damp lint free scrim to make a tack cloth.
