Clean PC keyboard without liquids

For safe keyboard cleaning without water or similar liquids, you need 1 bristle brush, 1 hair brush and a slightly damp screen cleaning cloth or eyeglass cleaning cloth. Simply put the keyboard on one edge so that the dirt can fall out. Hold the keyboard with one hand and brush with the other.

First, take the bristle brush and brush it thoroughly through all the cracks and corners between each button. That removes "the worst". Then repeat the same with the hairbrush. The hair brush can penetrate deeper than the bristle brush and also catches even the finest dust.

Then use the slightly damp screen cleaning cloth or eyeglass cleaning cloth to "degrease" the button surfaces and support surfaces for the palm of your hand. Rub hard on stubborn grease stains.

Should this result in the annoying fat crumbs, simply leave the keyboard for 1 minute and let it dry. Then sweep away the dry crumbs with the bristle brush.

Finished! depending on your thoroughness, your keyboard now looks like new, without having to separate the keyboard from the PC or the individual keys from the keyboard. Totally safe and without any kind of fluids.
