If you ever want to clean a synth with alcohol, I’d say the best bet is to use it in spray form. Give it a good mist and let it dry on its own. Come back with a damp (water) towel of you really have to

Some of the print on my M:S is fading just from use - and not even very heavy use at that.
Antiseptics can ruin piano keys. White covers are typically plastic which can crackle up into pieces. So you might ruin more than just finishes and labels. I also heard a rumor that according to steinway cleaning ivory keys with antiseptics should be ok.
I feel with you! I got mine as b-stock and started luckily on the back to desinfect it… So no harm to my top side.

Better to let it sit there for a bit in case someone else sneezed on your gear: https://www.dhs.gov/science-and-technology/sars-calculator
Hello All,
A little tip–don’t attempt to clean the surface of you Model:Samples with rubbing alcohol. A little rubbing alcohol is traditionally what I’ve used to clean the surfaces of electronics. I dipped a q-tip in the bottle lightly and started cleaning my M:S, I’ve nearly taken the control labels off and there are ink/paint smears all over my unit now lol.
I’d never owned white plastic gear before and notice mine was getting a tad dingy so I thought I’d clean it.
Not really a complaint on my part but just an FYI.
