Answer 2

a wet cloth should do it but it should not be really wet only a few drops, u can blow air by the help of a blower to get rid of the dust and Germs inside ur keyboard, u can aslo use liquids and HD 40, or any liquid not harmful to humans, or u can even open the whole thing clean it and put it back but thats not a good idea , and dont worry about using liquids because the keyboard circuit is in a manner of speaking sheilded from the above. but just for safety dont wash it :P just use a damp cloth.

Answer 3

First off, use canned air to blow through the keyboard. Make sure you hold the keyboard upside down and shake it to loosen any material that may be lodged in there.

Then spray it with Lysol disinfectant spray. Give it a light mist and allow it to dry completely (at least a couple of hours, preferably overnight).

That should remove any debris and kill any germs on your keyboard.

Answer 4

The best solution is to remove the keys (they just pop out) and clean each individual key. If you can't remember the layout, remove one line at a time and replace when cleaned. Whilst you have the keys out, you can tip any dirt out, from under the keys and clean the undersurface with a cloth that is damp with an anti-bacterial agent (disinfectant, anti-bacterial washing up liquid etc.).

Answer 5

A. Cover it in rubbing alcohol without letting it sink into the keys,
B. Buy a new Keyboard for 9 dollars.

Answer 6

hello dear [[: I've been told sticking a keyboard in a dishwasher is completely safe. The only thing is, the metal that holds the shift, backspace, plus, zero, enter keys, space bar, ETC, ETC, in place can come lose, but they are easily reattachable. (For future ref, 'reattachable' is not a word) You just take a small flathead screwdriver, pry the key off, and adjust the metal. (I suggest doing this BEFORE plugging it back in... and it should work. Best of luck <3

--and as a side note, if you trust your dishwasher to clean your dishes from which you EAT off of, you can probably trust that your keyboard will be bacteria free.

Answer 7

Disconnect your keyboard, turn it upside down, give it a shake to get all the little bits out. Then get a cotton 'ear' bud or old toothbrush, dip it in a little soapy water and clean, clean, clean those keys.

Answer 8

superb thank you to scrub it. heavily get rid of each and every of the keys, they pop off. Make a map so which you recognize the place all of them circulate! Toss them in a answer of a million area water a million area ammonia, scrub the crud along with your palms and rinse nicely. Drain them on a towel, rub them around slightly to get maximum folk of the moisture off. sparkling the keyless board with a vacuum first then a damped fabric with the ammonia blend. dry all of it off nicely, replace the keys.

Answer 9

you can completely submerge the keyboard in your bathtub (not that, thats how im telling you to clean it but.. you can)
just so long as its COMPLETELY dry before reconnecting it... it will be fine (i have tested this and its taught in A+ classes)

you can undo the handfull of screws in the back, use a can of compressed air to clean out the inside, keys and then use some lysol wipes to clean up the keys ect

Answer 10

Disconnect it then you can blow it off with canned air and wipe it clean with disinfectant wipes. Let it dry before using it again.

Just make sure you don't spray any liquids on it or get it "wet" and you should be alright.
