The qepHom 2020 vocabulary gives {teywI' 'echlet} "scraper's board" for any writing surface that can be easily physically erased and reused, so that suggests that {tey} can be used for 'wipe'.
To spread dust or liquid over a surface, how about {ngoH} "smear"?
We have QaDmoHwI'. I do think tey is too harsh a motion to mean "wipe". I am never against getting a specific word to replace a compound.
{QaDmoHwI'} means "dryer". How is that relevant to the request for "wipe"?
