Paul, Perhaps a wide strip of blue painters tape would work better to cover the surface of the hammers from the black dust, than the cloth I just suggested.

I asked a question a couple weeks ago, but maybe nobody received it. After gluing on the new hammers on the new WNG shanks with their newest glue, I got this strange white residue all over the shanks and collars . It cleans off easily enough with some 0000 steel wool, but; What is it???. Also when sawing off the shank ends, it really makes a mess of fine black powder all over the place, most visual on the hammer felt. vacuuming cleaned off most of it, but now the hammers look "dirty". I used a dremmel tool with a fine-cut- cutting blade. Am I doing something wrong, or is this the norm? Thanks in advance for your most humble thoughts.
