You shake shake shake the can to put the chalk in suspension and spray the cloth. Allow to dry thorougly, 30 minutes perhaps. The fluid dissolves the dirt and the chalk absorbs the dirty fluid. Then you use a soft brush to remove the chalk. In some cases where the baffle board with cloth attached can be removed from the set you wouldn't have to detach the cloth.
That sounds like the same "stuff" that a company called ChemDry uses to clean carpets, upholstery, etc. It's spayed on in a heavy mist, allowed to dry and then vacuumed off. The cloth in my Zenith is very loose, so whatever it was that held it in position has let loose. I think it'll be easy to remove. Once I take it out and have a better look at it, I'll decide on a course of action. This dry cleaner sounds like a good idea..............

Thanks for the information.
