    So, in short i spilled guava juice all over my keyboard.
    Tried to get it cleaned and popped it open to see what it was like but didnt really want to touch anything- worried about the static and stuff
    but is there any way i can clean individual keys cause its getting really hard to use the keyboard.
    thanks in advance!

    You may have to pop all keys in liquid area out to clean them and beneath.
    If you are lucky, the liquid didn't get into keyboard circuit. Otherwise, it will cost you a lot of money.

    well, it didnt get into the keyboard circut, its working fine but im not going to make my computer heat up cause it dont want it to melt in
    but is it just okay to pop keys out? cause for some of my friend's vaios the keys dont pop out unless you break them.
    i bought this last year by the way, not the lastest one if that helps

    Do not heat it before you clean them. If so, you will leave juice residue and it will be sticky someday.
    Try to clean keyboard as much as you can.
