Hi, Kaitlyn.
My husband has a keyboard at the office on which he
spilled coke. He tried pulling it apart to clean it
but to no avail. I just ofund out about it when I
told him, for future use, what you said about the
dishwasher. He's dubious; he thinks your pulling our
legs, but I assured him no, hyou've done it yourself
and you're serious.
He then asked a question I forgot to ask -- do you put
dishwasher detergent in the dishwasher or just use
the hot water?
