How to clean / remove frosting from PEIbed sheet

I recently got into 3D printing.

Printer Setup

  • Model: Ender-3
  • Board: 4.2.2
  • Firmware: Manufacture version of Marlin with BLTouch (Aug 2022 update)
  • Auto-level: CR-Touch
  • Bed Type: Stock --- Textured PEI or are they BuildTak ??

After doing some test prints and figuring out my leveling and z-offset. I had some print residue on the bed, where you could clearly see the first layer fails.

This morning, I decided to clean the print bed with acetone after reading several other forums and watching some reputable youtubers.

After wiping the bed down with a cloth, I know have frosting on my bed. I found this out from some other posts, but no post on how to properly clean the frosting.

I've added a picture, so hopefully that helps too.

Is this bed surface trashed??
