How to clean a fretboard?
Hi guys, here is a bit of a dumb question that I'm sure you'll be able to answer...  
 
The fretboard on my guitar is a bit grubby, just the usual grime that comes off your fingers. I always used to clean it off with wood alcohol (aka methylated spirits) but I have a nice guitar now and I'm scared of wrecking the paint job or damaging the inlays.  
 
Are there any guitar techs out there who could recommend a less aggressive way of cleaning the fretboard?  
 
Thanks  
 
Steve C.
