2. Blow out debris. Use a hair dryer to blow on the gaps in the keys of the keyboard to blow away any debris stuck in them, then flip the keyboard down again and shake it.
3. Scrub the surface. Use a soft cloth dampened with diluted detergent (be careful that the cloth is not too wet) to scrub the surface of the keys. Then vacuum the keyboard again.
4. disinfect. After the keyboard is cleaned, it may be dipped in alcohol, disinfectant or medicinal hydrogen peroxide for disinfection, and finally dry the surface of the keyboard with a dry cloth.
5. Wash thoroughly. If you want to give the keyboard a complete cleaning, you have to remove the caps from each key. The keycaps of normal keyboards are detachable, and you can pry them off with a small screwdriver or ear scoop. Larger key caps, such as the space bar and the enter key, are more difficult to return to their original positions, so try not to remove them. It’s best to take a photo or sketch of the keyboard layout with a camera first. After removing the keycaps, you can soak in a detergent or disinfectant solution, and carefully scrub the keyboard base with a flannel or disinfectant paper towel.
