The magic eraser is what I would advise. They truly are magic. I use them for all sorts of cleaning. Different erasers for different jobs. Sometimes even just a micro fibre cloth will do a remarkable job.

Get yourself some Magic Erasers at the grocery store. You won't believe how well they work. Walmart has one also in their name -- I think it's called Great Value. Just wet the white sponge and rub on the dirt and fingerprints and it comes off. And the nice thing is it is not expensive. Good luck!

I use a product called Awesome. You can get it at the different dollar stores and I've even seen it a Walmart in the cleaning supply area. Just spray it on, and then usually wipe it off. It is truly Awesome. I started using it to take ink off a pair of shoes when my husband dropped an in cartridge accidentally. I have gotten rid of almost all of my other cleaners as Awesome has tackled everything I have tried it on so far. No I am not affiliated with the company, but do love the product.
