Alchohol or (If you have a very long time to dry,) water.  I'd recommend Isoprobyl-Alchohol as its good vs. sticky stuff.

For the Best builds and Price lists here is a world where many points of the price have been predefined already for your convenience!

The Xeon E3 1231 V3 IS BETTER Than the Core i5 4690K and a Significantly better value for the non-overclockers or value shoppers.

The OS is like a kind food, Try it before saying if you like it or don't.

Is the space key sticking or is it just repeatedly pressing when the key isn't pressed? It's probably sugar.

 

If it's a mechanical keyboard you should rinse it out with lots of hot water. It'll take days to dry but you need to make sure everything's out of those mechanical switches.

 

If it's membrane then rinse it under the hot tap for 5 minutes and for 1 minute with the cold tap.

 

Next, wait for it to dry for a few days (a week if you can) and it'll work just fine.

It is just the space key sticking. 
I have try`d with a paper to wipe the switch, it does not shows me any signs of water on it. The other keys work fine (till now, and hope that it will work).
