Tidy up, in a way (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

dust

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">tidy up in a way</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this in another clue)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is all the clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for dust that I've seen before include "Clean - dirt" , "Powdered eart" , "Fine powdery material that can be blown about in the air" , "Fine dry powder" , "Tiny particles of dirt, skin flakes etc" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
