I haven't found cloudiness to be a problem. It's not quite as perfect a 
mirror finish as brand new keytops, but these are far from new anyway, 
usually. It's such a fine abrasive that it just leads to a slightly 
"warmer" shine. It does do a good job on wax buildup, various forms of 
crud, and even, with some effort, ball point pen. For old adhesive from 
labels, I have to go to citrus solvent in a damp rag.
