I even got to extend using alcohol and Autosol to bring back the shine of those I/O ports.....

then it will dry very fast right??

can my wireless keyboard dunk into the water? afraid the radio transmitter will spoil after i bath it...

Yup, wiping with a damp cloth, it dries up very fast after that. Less than an hour I can already run the PC safely.


I hope we won't have to repeat this too many times..

All electronics with no power connected (remember to remove batteries too) will survive being dunked (even soaked) in clean water as long as they are dried 100% afterwards. Mild soap/dishwash should also be ok, but must be rinsed off properly.

Sad la only apple can do it. I wish my razor can

Refer to the post above you

LOL. Not only Apple can lar. Orange, Durian, Grapes, Papaya, Watermelons oso can. Just make sure u rinse n dry completely.

wat a.........................................COLD JOKE Ianho not good in joke

not only apple la . I did it with my old compaq keyboard, I make sure it is 100% dry after i washed it. I did it for one day only. i used all of the method uncle ianho mentioned before, and wala...it works fine and feels like a brand new keyboard

ps: when i say all of the method i mean i did all off it like, dry under the sun, dry using hairdryer, i opened the keyboard and rinsed properly and finally dried it infront of the fan...hehe

Impressive cleaning job ! >.<

OMG I didn't know that this is possible!
wait till my kb reaaaaalllliiiii dirty then gona bathe it
Btw for those that tried this method hw long did u guys waited for it to be dried completely?

My KB is alive again.
Working properly again after another few days of sunbath ......

Very Impressive

For me about 3 days directly under a air-con (air-con air is freaking dry even though its not hot). Have to shake out all excess water first though, or it will take longer than that.

ooh...icic...probably gona try it out 1 day
i guess air conditioners suck up moist
thx 4 the reply btw!

yup one day also can. i did it. but you have to 100% make sure that it is dry...Good luck then.

Anybody use this method to clean a motherboard before?

my old keyboard i believe will be de dirtiest uve ever seen. lmao.
used this method. its in soap water right now. lol. i'll post images if i got time

if u can clean mobo can clean keyboard...

so can i wash my laptop as well?

all i need is to make sure it must be completely dry afterwards?

Drying a laptop will take a long time, probably at least a few months, unless you completely disassemble it.
