mmmm chunks of dust...

[badassmak]

I recently picked up a used SM-58 used, fairly cheap. When I unscrewed the windscreen, chunks of dirt fell out hehe. (maybe thats why it was cheap)...Anyhow, I'm just wondering simply whats the best way to clean A) the windscreen, and possibly more important B) the diaphram thingy (or should I just leave it the hell alone?!?!?)...Thanks...

ive seen guys use an old toothbrush to clean away old foam on the actual windscreen part of the mic (ball) before they put a new one in. Dont know about cleaning the diaphragm. Im sure someone will chime in here
