K70 RGB KEY CAP CLEANING

[choggy2840]

Hi LTT forum,

 

I am intending to give my K70 a long-awaited clean and I am nervous to use 99.9% Isopropyl Alcohol as I am unsure as to whether it will damage they keycaps eg discoloration, fading, eating away at the plastic etc also the same for the metal body. If anybody with a K70 RGB could let me know form any personal experience that would be greatly appreciated. I am using the keycaps that came with the keyboard just in case anyone asks.

 

TIA,

Max

Water and soap will do the trick

I use a cotton swab dipped in alcohol

yes, but alcohol will clean better as it will kill any bacteria and get rid of grime easier

But do you know if alcohol is ok for the k70 RGB keycaps?

You should be fine just don't use a excessive amount

Alcohol, Distilled / White Vinegar, Soap and water, Window Cleaner, Spit and Polish (maybe not this one), Basically anything will do a decent job, As Long as you're not using muriatic acid, you dont need to worry about discolouration or staining.

Thanks dude so just to be clear I shouldn't see any change in the keycaps eg the alcohol eating away at the plastic. Sorry for asking but I really don't want to break my keyboard as it is not a cheap keyboard! also great name btw.
