Abstract: An apparatus for cleaning electrostatically charged dust particles from a CRT screen. The apparatus includes a base member having a handle. An artificial fleece material is attached to the base member so as to cover an entire surface of the base member. The artificial fleece material has a plurality of fibers that extend generally outward from the base member. Mechanical movement of the artificial fleece over the surface of the CRT results in mechanical dislodgement of the dust particles. Further, the mechanical movement also results in an electrostatic charge developing on some of the polymer fibers. The electrostatically charged fibers can then attract electrostatically charged dust particles preventing these particles from re-adhering to the CRT screen.
