Hello! Not a dumb question. Mostly cosmetic, sometimes you can use a pink rubber eraser to remove the marks made by fingers on the strings but the possibility is there to damage them depending on the acidity of your fingers. However, I've never seen them damaged by being touched too much.

@@MrPianoTech Thanks for the quick reply.👍
I suspected as much, not that "cosmetic" doesn't mean it's not important.

Did you go to a school for this trade?
