Computer experts agree that your keyboard should be cleaned at least once a month. A lot of dust and crumbs accumulate here, and this not only spoils its appearance, but can also lead to breakdown. However, most users do not do this: some do not know how to do it correctly, and others are lazy. Although there is nothing complicated about this: humanity has come up with several ways to do this even without removing the keys.
Wipes for office equipment
The first and easiest way to keep your keyboard clean is to use office equipment wet wipes. It is necessary to use specialized napkins, because ordinary and paper ones leave a lot of dirt and lint during the cleaning process, and can also tear. Wipes for office equipment are suitable for daily cleaning and maintaining cleanliness, but they are not suitable for heavy soiling and general cleaning.
Compressed air
Another assistant in cleaning the keyboard is a compressed air cylinder. It will be especially useful for those who have furry pets at home. A jet of compressed air removes small debris and hair from under the keys. All cylinders are equipped with comfortable long nozzles, which allows you to supply air to hard-to-reach places and directly to contamination.
Liquid cleaner
For deep cleaning, you will need liquid products that can be used to remove dried stains and traces of spilled drinks. It is necessary to choose alcohol-based cleaners that dry faster and disinfect the surface. Such products require moderate and careful use. They must be applied exclusively to a de-energized keyboard.
Jelly gel
An advanced tool for removing dirt from the keyboard is a cleaning jelly-like gel-slime. It is easy to find on the Internet and purchased in any specialized store at a price no more expensive than regular soap. The gel perfectly absorbs dirt and dust from the surface, its effectiveness is confirmed by thousands of satisfied users and sales results. This tool is easy and understandable to use. You need to put it between the keys and wait until it penetrates deep and collects dirt.
Hard brush
If all of the above methods did not lead to the desired result and the keyboard remains heavily soiled, you will have to disassemble it and soak it in a soapy solution. Afterwards, thoroughly clean with a brush or brush, dry and put back together. In order not to confuse anything during assembly, you can take a photo of the original location of the keys.
