    How do I get rid of this? There are specs of dust and stuff in there and it ruins the look of the laptop. I'm very OCD so I notice it constantly. I took a vacuum cleaner to it and it didn't work. Is there a way to remove the panel without brekaing anything?

    I used sellotape then just pull it off. Gets most of the dust.

    hi kitty long time no see xxx

    try this....get your self a small brush with a small head,
    then you will need smoe contact adhesive and a cleaning soloution for the glue.
    spray the brush with a small amount of glue and dip in holes to lift out dirt.
    clean brush with a glue cleaner after every couple of holes.

    don't use too much glue.

    Nice too see you again Kitty
    love, Phil xxx

    What kind of adhesive should I use? I imagine superglue would be a bad idea.
