All,

The mailman delivered my latest acquisition today, a beautiful, oriented 98% 
crusted 107g Millbillillie individual.

It does have same nice radial flow lines that I would like to bring out when I 
have a change to put it in front of the camera.

I would like to 'clean up' some of the red dirt/dust to accentuate these lines, 
but obviously I don't want to damage the specimen and hurt the value. I was 
wondering if anyone had suggestions on how to gently removes some of this 
dust/dirt from the tops of the flowlines so they are a little more clearly 
defined visually than they are now?

A gentle wipe with a cotton ball dampened with ethanol perhaps?

I know some will say don't touch it; Leave it as it is, but that's not what I 
am asking so please don't respond with that. I'm not looking to radically 
change the appearance or character of the stone, just accentuate the flow lines 
a little more.

Thanks
