Subject: milk on keytops thread A few days ago there was a question as to whether milk could or should be used to clean keytops (ivories, I think). JF For what its worth: I found a newspaper clipping taped to the inside of a bench that called for plain yogurt to clean piano keys. I pointed to the clipping which surprised the owner. She knew her mother used "something" to clean the keys, but never saw her do it. The ivories were/are snow white. It is very difficult to see the joint between the heads and tails, and no odor-sour milk/yogurt-coming from the piano. I've haven't tried it...yet. Paul C
