Clean the board through out with a rag with rubbing alcohol on it then let it dry and should be good as new.

Good news: Your keyboard is going to be fine, just hang it up and let it dry out or find some way to dry it.

 

Bad news: A lot of ppl here are gonna look down upon you for not having a mechanical keyboard, and they're gonna tell you your keyboard sucks and is terrible. Also, hand over your MCMR card if you had one.

You can take the keys off. Because its rubber dome, you'll just be able to wipe the rubber off

That's the joke tho... spill milk on the mechanical and... well, then you're actually in trouble lol. I'm of the belief that if ppl are happy with rubber dome keyboards, then just let em be happy... I wouldn't even have upgraded from a G11 after like 9 years of service if the LEDs hadn't started flickering. But was it really an upgrade if I can only expect it to last up to the next spill on it? Imagine 9 years of never spilling some drink or other mishap... For all the talk of using mech keyboards as a weapons, I doubt it would live through the blood splatter after being used as a weapon.

Common misconception Rubber dome keyboards fail just like Mech's do with spills. It all depends on how much was spilled. I would also say that milk is the worst, because it takes time to turn and get funky. After that its game over. So clean and dry everything you can. Hope fore the best. If not just trash it and pick up another cheapo from walmart.
