Wondering how to clean residue from sand-blasted platinum bezel

I used Lavish foam cleaner on my YM40 and it left behind some residue that doesn't quite wipe off because it's in the nooks and crannies of the bezel.

Observe the shadowy edging around the bezel's raised markers.

Should I steam clean or is there a simpler solution to this?

P.S. - isn't she lovely?

Soap, warm water and a very soft brush

Did you not get a brush with the cleaning foam?

You can use dishsoap. Never leaves residue for me

Acetone on a q tip works fine for me
