How To...Clean Ivory Piano Keys

Did you know your piano keys and your enamel have something in common? Ivory keys can be cleaned using the very same toothpaste that you (hopefully) use each morning and night. Follow up with a little milk, and wipe away with a lint free cloth. Others recommend using a 30% hydrogen peroxide solution, another dental related substance, which makes us wonder if we should floss between the keys too.

But you're aware that most modern piano keys aren't ivory, right?

Ever since endangered ivory-producing species became protected, the spruce base of white piano keys has been covered with plastic instead.
