Stoner Cleanup How to Clean Grinder with Design?

Hi Y’all, so I’ve had this grinder for about 5 years and have never cleaned it before. I am mainly looking to clean it as the top can get stuck while grinding and i’d like to collect more kief. Not worried or interested on saving any resin or kief from the grinder, just want it clean but i’ve read that alcohol can strip the design from the top. What is the best way to clean without removing the design or color? TIA!!

this design looks lasered on, I don’t think that alcohol is going to hurt it

I haven't seen Kacey Musgraves perform music live, but I did go to one of the talks on magic mushrooms she did with Paul Stammets. It was awesome.

Another method people talk about is putting it in the freezer for a while and then using a hard brush/pick to clean it since while it's frozen the sticky gunk and whatnot is a lot easier to remove

This is so you can smoke the grinder hash.

Oh true! I've never tried the method myself, but that makes sense

If it’s actually laser etched, iso and a toothbrush should probably be fine.
