I worked on cleaning up the keyboard today. The keys had some sort of lacquer on them. I used paint stripper to soften it up and then scraped with a razor blade.
After cleaning all of the "white" keys, I had to figure out how to clean the black ones. They too had some sort of coating on them. The issue here is that they are plastic and I cannot use the paint stripper on them. After a small test, it looks like the buffing wheel is the best thing to polish them up.

Here is the keyboard all cleaned and polished. I will most likely put a nice clear coat on the "white" keys before final assembly.
