Safe way to clean keyboard "grease"?

[Hypnosis]

Macbook's keyboard is getting shiny from finger oils and just general use. Are alcohol wipes (Clorox disinfecting wipes) safe to use to clean the keys?

I just spray some Invisible Glass on a microfibre towel and wipe it down and that works.

Your solution is much more cost-effective than mine. I power the machine off and spray iKlear onto a MF cloth. Works fine, cost per application is probably way too high...but this only happens maybe 1x/month.

I just use microfibre towel without any cleaning solution, But I keep my microfibre in a case after use.

I use some towel with isopropanol on my external Apple keyboard, and it takes it off easily.

It doesn't take long for the keys to get a polish to them. Cleaning won't take that off; the only fix would be to replace the key caps.

I second this keep the chemicals away from the keyboard ( friends have noticed discoloration/flat keys) just use a micro and apply pressure. Make sure the mac is off and go in circular motions. Works for me always good luck

Shiny keys is expected from regular usage.
