If you're going to get keys wet during cleaning, get the bushings out and insert the Spurlock bushing-sizing cauls at the same time. Had great success with ozonating a set of keys, by the way. A significant victory, considering how mouse-infested the piano was. First I cleaned them mechanically as wel as I could, then ozonated them about 20 times. No pee smell now discernable.
