Mechanical Keyboard Cleaning

Cleaning electronics is a must and it doesn’t need to be stressful. Often the most used items are the most overlooked. While cleaning can be a hassle, having clean electronics is a must so we don’t need to replace them years later! Here are some simple steps to follow to maintain your mechanical keyboard.


Steps:

⚠️ Do not use any liquids directly on the base of your keyboard.

Step 1: Take a picture of your keyboard to know exactly where all the keys need to go afterwards.

Step 2: Remove all of your keycaps.

Step 3: Place keycaps in your cleaning bowl with a dash of dish soap and warm water.

Step 4: Dry Keycaps and set them aside

Step 5: Take a q-tip and clean in the crevices of the keyboard

  • Optional: Use alcohol on the q-tip for hard stuck grime.

Step 6: Place keys (when dry) back on the keyboard.

  • Ziploc bag (or bowl) large enough to hold all of your keyboard keycaps.

  • Microfiber towel (any drying towel will do)
