Wikipedia article on the subject was a little too technical, getting into layered molecular structure and non-lamellar structures and such. Hoping this sub can make sense of it.

Put a dab of oil on a glass surface and a dab of graphite also, cover them with lint from the dryer screen, now blow the lint off the glass.
Oily substances attract dirt.
