Pull the keys off, take a rag and lightly wet it with isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol, and wipe down your keyboard before use. I'd also recommend that you take a toothbrush/Q-tips or something, wet them with the alcohol as well, and brush the outside AND inside of the keys so that they're not excessively sticky when you put them back on.

Ew, apple juice.

I actually unplugged my keyboard and took it into the bathtub with me and soaked it in the water while I was cleaning up and let it dry for a week, no more sticky keys from when I spilled Starbucks on it.

Well, there's really only one way to find out.

Gotta love those sticky keys now.

I uh.

I wouldn't recommend this.

When spilling liquids on a keyboard, don't turn it over. It fills the bottom of the keys, which in turn allows them to stick. Just put paper towel between the keys to sop the majority of it, then take the keys off and wipe it down with a warm cloth.

When I've spilled things on keyboards, I always had to take the keys off and soak them anyways. It wouldnt only hurt to turn the keyboard upside down, if you weren't planning on cleaning everything xP

Hm.

 

Spilt half a can of coke on my keyboard, only had to take about 2 or 3 keys off.

I pictured this. I may have laughed harder than I should have.
