Lint

[shatto]

Why?
When cleaning the lint filter...
do my dry fingers slide right over the lint, while a dampened finger lifts the lint right off the screen?

Some lint from the last time you did it will also take the lint right off.

The same reason there is a meniscus in your glass of water.

Coefficient of drag changes due to moisture?

I just use an older piece of lint to grab it.

That's how mine is. Do you all use anti-static dryer sheets? I wonder if that plays a role in it. I use them all the time and fabric softener on top of that. It's the only way I've found to reduce getting shocked every single time I get out of a car.

I just use my fingernail in one bottom corner to get it started coming off (it is thickest in the bottom corner)- then it all comes off in one big sheet.

nope never have prolly never will (waste of money IMO)

If your dryer seems to not get your clothes dry, run it under the faucet - you'll rinse off the invisible dryer sheet residue - and it will pick up lint faster, and dry your clothes faster, too!
