how can I clean my sticky keyboard
 

soap and water isnt workin and no its not cum its from food and greasy food ect.

Fantastic,an old toothbrush and some compressed air.I used to fix them and they come out like new

but its like the surface is sticky did you scrub the keys with the tooth brush>

you knew you were gonna have to clarify why, huh.

You unscrew the back of your keyboard and remove the keys and place such in a pale of worm soapy water and of course wipe down every part and rinse and put back together your keyboard... Should take about 45 minutes.

or buy yourself a new keyboard for between $30 - $45


Later,

Put it in the dishwasher. Don't let it dry, just wash. Then let it air dry for 3 or 4 days.

okey i will do that! thanks for sharing that idea!:thumbsup

Either of the two will do! :thumbsup

I used alcohol when i cleaned my keyboard.But i barely cleaned anything,i was start to thinking about buying new keyboard.But microsoft no longer produce keyboards as they used to be so i stick with old one.

Alcohol and a cotton ball or q-tip :thumbsup:thumbsup

Possible solution next time to avoid this problem.. Don't eat in front of the computer!!

Yes,don't bother removing them.Fantastic will remove most of the grim..use a soft well worn toothbrush and scrub lightly.give it a good blast of air though.works like a charm believe me

the dishwasher method does work

so does buying a new keyboard - they are pretty cheap.

isnt a new keyboard like $10? just buy a new one

I don't know about these modern keyboards... they all suck anyway.

MY old IBM board I could open up, take out the circuit board, soak the keys and air clean the contacts...

I got weed crumbs in between my keys? How do I get them out? Thanks.

We need to exercise somehow :helpme

LOL... Okay


:pimp

Pop all the keys off and soak them in a bucket with some oxy-clean.

How much does a bucket of oxyclean cost? Keyboards have germs,spills.cleaning them beats jumping in the car and buying one when you're busy

Call me lazy but I usually buy a new one.

3 scoops per gallon of water. $0.50 or so? Stuff is genius.

I dont think I've eaten one meal AWAY From my pc in YEARS. I ONLY eat in front of the pc. I like to eat and read at the same time, I cannot just sit there and eat when just sitting there and doing nothing else, I have to eat and read, and no I can't read a book or newspaper, it has to be internet forums!

Buy a new one!

good replies, I cant just buy news ones I have over 30 computers

seriously... i'd just buy a new one .....

BABY WIPES for the top of the keys. Works wonders, and wont chaff.

:)

I used cotton ball as well.It didnt help.When you dont wash your keyboard for 10 years,then i belive there is no help.

Well... pay someone for three days to clean 30 keyboards as I had indicated above and you will have it done for less then buying 30 new keyboards...

Later, :upsidedow

jeez, what do you have 30 computers for?

might want to consider opening the bank vault.
