[QUOTE="all_fakes, post: 4339326, member: 55"]I might mention that Baumgartner might use the spit method or something similar when cleaning; but often rather than Q-tips, he will wind cotton balls or cotton puffs around a small stick to make something similar to a Q-tip; but that lets him adjust the size and softness of the cleaning swab. That method might help tailor the cleaning swab to the amount of impasto, MOS. He sometimes uses a product called gelled water which also may penetrate impasto better than plain water. You might try checking out some of his videos - he has dozens, if not hundreds - to see how he cleans when there is heavy impasto.[/QUOTE]
