Of course you can. I do it all the time. Sometimes I'll even put it in the dishwasher. Just make sure of 3 things.
1: It's unplugged first.
2: It's not a wireless keyboard
3: It's completely dry before you plug it back in to use it.

You can only use water on water proof keyboards. Otherwise, water will warp the board under the keys and the keyboard will no longer work.
You can use Windex or another cleaning solution. Spray it on the paper towel or cloth you will use to clean the keyboard, rather than directly on the keys.
Take care,
Troy

Yes you can but it is NOT advisable. Use an alcohol solution or glass cleaner. Spray it on a cloth and wipe away. If you have cotton quiutips, you can clean between the keys. Also, a can of compressed air is very help full.

If it is just dusty, just get a can of air. That works better than wiping it off anyways. If you spilled something on it use denatured alcohol. It has very low water content and dries fast. But usually if you spill something on it the keyboard will eventually fry anyways. If you use water it could possibly cause corrosion and really mess things up.

on some keyboards one can take the individual key's plastic covers out, wash them by soaking in soap water, dry and then put them back to their places. See if yout keyboard keys can be plucked out.

Oh no! Use wipes or canned air. They also make brushes to clean keyboards. DO NOT USE WATER LOL. It'll ruin it.

If you put it on the cloth first,and don't pour it directly on.But I would suggest a special cleaning tool. Like compressed air things you con buy at Wal-Mart.

First unhook your keyboard from the computer, then use Q-tips dipped in rubbing alchohol.
