yea, there's some coating on them, so better not apply anything on it. just wipe with clean cloth with water, most of the time u don't need any cleaning solution for it

Relax, just get a microfiber cloth and wipe.. Dampen with water if got some stains.. Unless its some stubborn stain then you may need 50/50 water and isopropyl alcohol.

But mostly ill just leave it many months before i wipe once lol
