I suggest you wipe it down with denatured alcohol. lacquer thinner or acetone on a rag can also be used, but the denatured alcohol is safer. The others will leave behind a residue not advised for inside a humidor. If using the last 2 allow plenty of time to completely dry, rinse with a wet rag and allow to completely dry again.

If severe, a light sanding with sand paper may be necessary.
