The sudden changes in temperature affect both the wood of the piano and the wood. Now we will tell you how to clean the piano. Start by reading the manufacturer’s directions. Then, only the lacquer finish on the wood only needs to be dusted with a vacuum or a brush.

You can then vacuum the keyboard. If you want to wax your piano you can you should use a wax or polish to give your piano a gloss. Old ivory pianos keys turn yellow after a long time of use, and there is no change to that. You can clean these types of keys with denatured alcohol, but make sure not to use so much.

Too much moisture will ruin the keys. The modern keys can be wiped with a damp cloth follow by a dry cloth.
