Keeping your workspace clean is more important than ever, and washable keyboards make it easier to maintain hygiene while enjoying a productive environment. However, knowing how to properly clean and maintain your WetKeys washable keyboard is essential to ensure its longevity and effectiveness. This guide will provide you with the steps necessary to keep your keyboard in top condition.

Gather Your Supplies

Before you start cleaning, gather the right supplies. You’ll need a mild soap, a soft cloth or sponge, and warm water. Alternatively, you can use approved disinfecting wipes instead of the mild soap and warm water. You’ll also want to review the specific instructions for cleaning your washable keyboard as they can vary from model to model.

Remove Loose Debris

Before washing, begin by removing any loose debris. Turn the keyboard upside down and gently shake it to dislodge particles. You can also use compressed air to blow away dust and crumbs trapped between the keys. This step ensures that your cleaning process is more effective and reduces the risk of grime buildup.

Clean the Surface

Once loose debris is removed, it’s time to clean the surface. Dampen a soft cloth or sponge with warm water mixed with a little soap. Wipe the keyboard thoroughly, paying extra attention to the keys and any crevices. For areas with stubborn stains, let the solution sit for a minute before wiping it away. Rinse the cloth or sponge often to avoid spreading dirt. You can quickly dunk the keyboard in soapy water if necessary, but do not soak it. Soaking is unnecessary and may void your product warranty.

Rinse and Dry

After cleaning, rinse the keyboard with clean water by using a damp, clean cloth to wipe away any soapy residue. Ensure no moisture builds up in the key gaps. Finally, let the keyboard air dry completely before plugging it back in or using it. Proper drying is crucial to avoid any water-related damage.
