My goodness... the presenter is positively vibrating at the end. I really didn't think it was quite that exciting...
Even if it seems hard, plastic is a soft material. You should only use the abrasive side of a sponge if nothing else helps and you're willing to risk trading the dirt for a chance of lots of scratches. The smoother the surface, the higher the risk of scratching.
Seriously. You SHOULD NOT use paper towels. They are abrasive. They will scratch all these modern high gloss work surfaces.
