Keeping your piano clean is very important when stopping the spread of germs And now is as good a time as any to learn how to clean your piano properly!
Pianos can get pretty dirty and it’s good to clean it once a week. I clean mine every day since it’s used more often.
Since piano keys are commonly made of wood they can be pretty sensitive to the wrong cleaning products. I like to dilute a disinfectant cleaner in water (the amounts aren’t precise) and I even add a little vinegar.
I don’t spray it directly on the keys because if any liquid seeps between the keys it can damage the wood. Instead, I spray my rag regularly as I wipe down the piano. I also make sure to get in between all the black keys and not just the tops.
After I wipe down the keys I clean off all the surrounding areas in the same manner, like the fall board and the very front of the piano.

Happy cleaning everyone!
