"Hi Kashif,

I personally clean my laptop keyboard with the spray sanitiser ( if too dirty) applied on the cotton buds and this allows me to go though the keyboard.

Is very handy to do it, your laptop is cleaned, sanitised and also it is an easy job , to be honest :).

Good luck ! :)"

"Whether it's cotton or microfiber, the cloth can't reach all the surfaces of the keyboard. That's why I work with a girl who creates my BIO slime without perfume or dyes. That slime hangs all the dust, even from those extremely small surfaces, because it is elastic, does not stick and leaves no traces. Most commercial sprays are toxic and contain alcohol which can cause severe skin allergies. In case of traces of food, I use microfiber with hot water and then this slime that works wonders"

"Hiya, I wouldn't use any products on the keyboard. Use a damp cloth then a dry cloth wipe ( microfiber cloths are best )"
