Blackheads aren't a problem to be dealt with, it's just a build up of natural oil. So even if that is what it is, there's no reason to look for a solution.

I would be more concerned about his skin being too dry than overly oily. A sand bath might be irritating to bare skin. This is a fairly specialized concern though, you might need to find someone with experience of hairless animals in general, rather than hamsters in general.
