Ive found that using a combination of dust covers and periodic cleaning works best. I got clear plastic dust covers for my more valuable pieces and use a microfiber cloth to wipe down the shelves regularly. It doesnt hurt to get a small air purifier for the room to reduce dust accumulation in the first place. My setup now is a lot easier to maintain, and I feel like my figures stay in better condition longer.

I swap displays quarterly, keeps things fresh and clean.

I use food storage containers for loose figures.

DIY dioramas in sealed boxes look amazing and protect well.

My office display stays surprisingly clean with an air filter.

Avoid open windows in your collection room.

Static spray helps a little with repelling dust.

A dedicated cabinet with felt-lined shelves looks sleek.

Display less, rotate more. Keeps cleaning easier.

Even basic bookshelves with doors help a ton.
