Allen,
I've had negative experience with 0000 steel wool on keytops. It abrades
polish on plastic tops, making them a satin rather than polished finish,
which is a matter of taste. I would suggest checking with the customer first.
Another caveat- as an organ technician I have seen the loose steel wool
fibers short circuit keyboards. I would not recommend using on Diskclaviers
for example. Key polish from Yamaha or Cory works the best for me.
