I certainly would keep ANY 'spray' FAR away from the kb itself ... and always use with a soft cloth, as others have said ...
Now if you want the kb to 'be the brightest' you could always brush on some glue and then sprinkle some 'glitter' over the glue ...
JUST KIDDING ... JUST KIDDING !!! ...

Spray Windex on the cloth not the keyboard, it is harmless and does a good job[removing finger smudges etc].

Squeak now you tell me not to use Windex....after 40 years of use....BTW, zero problems over the 40 years with Windex...

You only have to use it periodically...most of the time i use the same cloth dry to wipe the keyboard..

Squeak


I'm with Squeak on this one. Windex has ammonia in it. Ammonia and plastic don't mix. I ruined a friends turntable cover by spraying it with windex. Windex is for glass windows.

As a former va5 owner the roland va5 owners manual strictly states that ethernol is the only product u can use to clean the touch screen. I remember the manual also saying that u can obtain ethernol from your pharmacist

Hi - I just brought home a MEMOREX AIR DUSTER ...( canned air i guess ) for removing dust... is it any good ? It says ( excellent for computers, photography, electronics )..Now i am wondering where can i buy something to whipe/spray on cloth & gently clean the kb......is there something special for cleaning the touch screen ?

Regards,

Claudiu

I put normal toothpaste (original white based) onto a damp cloth and clean the keys. It works fine so far.
