How to clean your keyboard the easy way

A simpler way to clean your keyboard.

Needed materials:
-Multitool, or a phillips screwdriver+a dull knife. If you don't have either of these, you're insane and obviously don't fix anything around your house.
-A towel (if you don't have one, you're probably dirtier than your keyboard is)

This guide works for keyboards similar to the HP 5309U keyboard. This is a fairly common, fairly simple keyboard model. Hopefully you have one like it.

@thewii552: Highly unlikely? Of course. Unlikely to actually injure you? For sure.

Possible? I'd say so. If electrical current is running to switches, if you complete the circuit with your finger, electrical current will run through your finger. The switches are covered with plastic, sure, but they're still switches.

My keyboard used to be really dirty, but after following the directions in this tutorial, it's much more comfortable to use. This works.
