I made my purchase a few months ago and everything is more than fine with it.. all works 100% apart from one thing.. I spilt Gin and Tonic on it and now my backspace and ENTER key are sticky.

As you can imagine this completely ruins the effect of having a mechanical keyboard..

So my question is, how do I remove the keys and what’s the best way to clean them?


Thanks in advance,

Jay

Grab the keys from a corner and pull. It'll be hard but, they won't break. Then you can just put them under water or something just make sure you dry them when you're done. To put them back on, just push the key down onto the slot and press the key a few times.
