Otherwise, just blow-dust it with a can of compressed air, etc. Same goes for the inside of the face mask, as it's also capable of getting a contamination trail and arcing.

EXCELLENT ADVICE!!! When I "did" my 4, I cleaned the daylights out of the shield and CRT, and the rest of the chassis, cabinet, etc., and so far it's been great, no arcing or other HV related trouble. Always a good idea to clean anything electronic as much as possible, but essential when dealing with HV.
