I split some stuff on my keyboard today, and now some of the keys are a bit sticky.

Some of the keys take a few seconds to come back up after I press them.

It'll be best to buy a new keyboard if the problem is serious..

It's not serious, just a few keys.

Mostly b, c, g and n.

R was sticky earlier, but I presed it about 20 times and it seemed to go back to normal, trying it with the other keys.

How do you take it apart? It's a logitech wireless MX I think.

Pop off all the keys with a knife and take out the screws from the back (may have to pry it apart). Wash all the parts you can get to, let it dry for 48 hours, put it back together.

One time I had a call from a user who had a problem with her keyboard. So I went to her cubicle and it turned out she had spilled her cup of chicken noodle soup on it...

Go to Home Depot and look for the product called Sperm-B-Gone. Its usually behind the counter at Customer Service, so you'll have to ask a representative for it.

Spray it on the keyboard, and let set for 15 minutes, and all your keys will be unsticked.

cover your keyboard in plastic wrap so it stays clean, and if you spill something you can just wipe it off.. just like all the some people put plastic covers for their remote controls.

Do they sell bulk for cheaper? Like a pallet for maybe $5 each? I think it's cheaper to replace rather than trying to clean it each time.

Consider yourself lucky that you were just using your avatar, you might have messed up the whole keyboard.

Do they sell ahole-B-gone as well? You could use some of that.
