My existing observatory:

I have rubber molded on top of walls Nth/Sth, to seal the roof ends when open/closed.
along the rails there is foam strip seals.
and the rail open slots I use paint brush bristle.
85% dust free! the raised deck is open to allow ventilation from beneath.
(I 2 get HOT 45 in summer)
I still use a cotton sheet when not in use
