how do you go about cleaning the face of your equipment?
most of my equipment has brushed aluminum face plates and some, my receiver especially, has some finger prints/oil stains on them...how do i clean it off and make it nice and shiny?
thanks,
rich

I just use a damp soft cloth or a vacuum cleaner with a brush attachment.

Rubbing alcohol on a soft cloth works well. Alcohol will evaporate and will not damage your gear.
Angelo, have you tried the Endust stuff? Does it work?

Yes. I've used it for a long time to clean my HT electronics, computers, TVs and monitors. It works very well. It evaporates quickly and is nothing like traditional Endust; no residue.

The "electronics" Endust works great for me too.
No residue, picks up the dust, doesn't discolor the finishes. Metal or plastic.
I'll usually use a cheese cloth with Windex on the display windows to keep from scratching.

Will alchohol damage plactic parts? I'd be afraid to try that.
