Supposedly "conditioned" them, too. I have never heard about using it on plastic, though. I will pose the question to a chemist I know, and if I get any answers worth passing on, I will certainly do so....

The plastic keytops were fairly dirty and my client said that her mother told her to clean with rag dabbed with milk. While installing the keys, I gave her 2, 1 to clean with milk, and the other with water. The water did not do to well, but the milk cleaned the other key spotless. I have never heard about milk for cleaning anything, let alone piano keys. Is there something about milk derivatives that has cleaning agents? Will milk clean ivory as well? Yes, I had my milk today.
