Here’s an easy way to clean your computer’s keyboard
Does your computer’s keyboard tend to collect all manner of dust and dirt between the keycaps?
Yeah, mine too.
Luckily, there’s a very easy way to remove most of that gunk without having to perform major surgery on your keyboard…
Simply run the sticky edge of a Post-It Note between the edges of the keycaps. You just might be surprised what you find in there.
After you’ve cleaned the gunk out from between the keys you can blow all the loose dust and debris away by blasting it with a can of compressed air.
