Not exactly a particulate, but I asked a similar question at the Starsight release party:
TearablePuns
How do Lashings affect fluids like water or air?
Brandon Sanderson
Hard to Lash a fluid. It works poorly. How about that?
You can make it work best with the Reverse Lashing which would make sense I assume, but you can't Full Lash onto air or really a liquid. And a Gravitational Lashing, you could maybe do it on a liquid but it would disrupt real fast.
