computer keyboards

Absolutely not, get a can of air to blow it out or get a computer vacuum. If the keys are sticky, you can try popping one off and cleaning them one at a time, if it is really bad, but a new key board, they are not that expensive. I am going to guess that if you throw your keyboard in a dishwasher you will end up buying a new one anyhow. On and btw, just because a person is a college professor, it does not mean they know anything about computers.

nopes, never tried that anyways whats the need for it. i don't think it get that dirty.

I have never heard of cleaning a keyboard this way but I would have to assume that you coudl do it if you were willing to rip the keys off of it, give it plenty of time to dry and take the risk that it would be ruined if you screwed up. If your keyboard is a cheaper one, it might just be easier to go get a new one rather than waste time to put it in the dishwasher and wait days for it to dry completely. Common sense would dictate that you wash it alone / without dishes so that you reduce the risk of any food particles getting jammed into the keyboard.

Nope, it's not crazy. I've done it a couple of times before. Just carefully take the keyboard apart and remove the contact sheet with the wiring on the inside. That can just be wiped down with a damp cloth. the other pieces can go into the dishwasher and it does a pretty good job of cleaning it.

If it's a nice keyboard, I pop the buttons off soak them in hot soapy water (after I spray them with ammonia) then I squirt the board it's self with hot water, dish soap and ammonia solutions. I then take q-tips and a toothbrush and scrub, wipe it spotless, set it on it's side by the heater for an hour or so (just incase it got wet some place) and then replace all those keys! That can be tricky if you have an oddball keyboard, but afterwards the keyboard is as good as new, no sticking, nothing. You would be amazed at what lies beneath the keys!!! YUCKY!

Dude i have not heard about putting your keyboard in the dishwasher. But still i would recomend you not to do so as it may harm the keyboard. Its better that you clean it with a toothbrush. It is a bit lenghty process but it wont harm your keyboard.

well i thinks for cleaning your key board fisrt take of all the swithchs and then clean it i am sure it is not easy but if u have done any type of hardware course then u can do this
