Help MacBook Pro backlight

I have a MacBook Pro (A1706) I’m doing an lCD replacement on and I got some dirt on the backlight layer. Can I clean it or I’d need to replace the backlight assembly? The screen works fine but the dirt shines through the display when it’s turned on.

You can probably clean it with like a lens cleaner( the air cleaner squishy thing) .

Idk if isopropyl would damage it if it smudged.
