clean oily/greasy filco keys

What's the best way to quickly clean oil and grease off my Filco Majestouch TKL? I read that alcohol is a nono, but will water with a cloth do the trick?

a mr clean magic eraser works great (on the tops of the caps while they are still on the board, just wet it a little squeeze excess water off, lightly go over the tops of the caps and wipe with a paper towel.)

Just on the keycaps, my friends don't wash there hands after eating food and stuff. To be more specific my friend had some olive oil on his hands from cooking and he used my keyboard, they have no idea how much this stuff costs.
