Here is a question we are often asked about cleaning the exterior of accordions:
What is the best way to deal with dust particles on the right hand keyboard ?
Answer:
Here in our shop we routinely clean accordion keyboards with rubbing alcohol*. Put a little on a soft, lint-free cloth wrapped around your index finger. Clean each key with a vigorous rubbing motion, especially in between the black keys. Do the same for the rest of your accordion. It works great. We do not recommend End Dust or other polishes. I see no problem with using compressed air in a can to remove light dust the same as one might use for a computer keyboard.
*Note: Be sure to use "rubbing" alcohol (like you'd find in your medicine cabinet), not Denatured alcohol that could damage the finish.
