Feeling the keel may be more useful, as a muscular but an underweight bird could weigh the same as a fat out-of-shape bird since muscle weighs more than fat. Combining both keel sharpness and actual weight is a more effective way to judge health. It's also a good idea to part the feathers and check for fat deposits on the abdomen and crop region once a month or so.
I usually do a keel and fat check after I trim my birds' nails. They are society finches and hate being handled, so I don't usually weigh them; the last time I weighed them (about a year ago), they weighed 13.59, 14.55, 14.53, and 14.36 grams. Interestingly the lightest bird looks the largest since he doesn't hold his feathers as tight against his body when he's relaxed. I think I got a scale like this.

Do not use in any area where the bird can breathe in the fumes or where the bird will touch the surface of what you have wiped down. If you have touched these wipes, wash your hands before handling your birds.

EDIT: This is a very safe cage cleaner that you can use while your birds are in the cage. Obviously, don't spray directly on birds. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00176INM8/ref=oh_aui_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&th=1

As mentioned Poop Off is also a safe cleaner. Once your cage is cleaned, if you want to disinfect, use steam or a disinfectant such as F10. If you use a chemical, make sure it is well dried before allowing birds back into cage. Do not use on food or water bowls.
