Thanks for the spelchek! I don't see why you couldn't wipe them with distilled water as long as you do it while the bulbs are cool (and disconnected) and you avoid getting the connectors wet. Make sure they are dry before reconnecting them.

I keep plain white Bounty paper towels at all times. You can wet them and they don't fall apart, and they are so soft they can't scratch things easily, you can even use them to fish garbage floating in your water, and they are fine. No, I do NOT work for the company and I do not get paid for saying this. Just wanted to share my experience. I do clean my lights with the wet paper towels when the lights are cooled off.
