Default Question on Sanding Primer

I'm in the process of painting my intake. I have sanded it, sprayed a little adhesion promoter, and sprayed several layers of high-build primer.

After I let it sit for a day, when sanding the primer, how do you get the dust off? I don't have an air compressor, and I'm sure I can't wash it off like I washed off the dust from sanding the intake?

You most certainly can wash if off if you want. People wet sand primer all the time and spraying it off with a gentle stream of water is no different. You can also use a tack rag.

If you want to blow the crevices out you can use the cans of compressed air for computer cleaning. I still used a tack cloth after using my air compressor, though.
