It's one of the most annoyning things about the G73. Dust gathers in the grill that the speaker are behind, it can appear anywhere on the grill but its mainly concentrated next to the Power Button (at least it is for me)
I tried blowing it out with a rocket blower that you use to get dust out of cameras. This did work very well at all so I continued thinking about what would help.
Then i found it. Blue Tack (not sure if its called this worldwide) but its the tacky blue stuff you use to stick pictures on the wall.
Its perfect and has removed about 95% of the dust in my grill. this was just after one pass. I guess, with a little more perserverance, and maybe with the help of a cocktail stick to ensure that some of the blue tack gets right into the holes you could pobably remove it all.
Good Old Blue Tack.

I take mine to the car wash and hit it with the coin op. vac. sucks the dust right out, then i strap it to top of my jeep and run it through the wash. Thats how chunk norris told me a real man does it anyway.

Alternatively, he could also just tell the dust to get the f*** off his G73 and the dust would comply never to be seen again. -
Gee Shaggy thanks! Gonna try later this evening!

I found that using a soft brush tends to work for me. Leaves the paint on as well.

I use a clean paintbrush, it takes off all teh dust from the grills

I use bikini wax for mine, leaves my G73 with a clean shave that impresses the ladies.
