Never clean the sidewall, maybe you can do it with WD40 which is an oil with a cleaning function but cleaning arround the rings with a more polishing cleaner means taking away material.
The rings act like a piston ring, it holds oil to spread over the wall of the cilinder and with holding oil it helps also to build up compression.
