External cleaning kronos

My kronos has over time collected specks of dust despite being covered when not in use. It appears between the faders, buttons etc and I think the body itself could do with some brightening up. A duster is only so good but it deposits dust particles as well as attracting them. I don't want to leave tiny scratches or leave part of the whole surface looking rather dull.
What have you used to give the K a good spring clean?

I don't typically recommend canned air because it spreads the dust around. I prefer vacuum as it collects duct. A vacuum with a small brush (small paint brush) should be able to remove all dust.

I use a microfiber cloth.

Many thanks.
Can you also use a can/spray of somerthing to buff up the whole surface after the microfibre cloth to get rid of fingermarks etc and generally brighten it up to a factory finish?
Finally, what does anyone use to clean the surface of the delicate screen itself?

Hi there,

For finger marks and such I use only a slightly damped microfiber cloth, then wipe just after with another dry microfiber cloth (do not put liquids or sprays directly). A couple of times I had to add a tiny bit of glycerine soap mixed with water. I clean the screen the same way but even more gently.
