I have a silver coated open hole flute. and...well....its really dirty. I have band right after lunch and i dont really have time to wash my hands afterward. what should i wash it with. i dont want to buy any expesive cleaner really. i dont want to use water either because i think that might ruin the pads.

At most music stores they sell polishing cloths. One is called a glo-cloth. You can buy treated or untreated and they are fairly cheap.(5.95)
