Put the keycaps in a bowl of lukewarm water with a little dish soap, let them soak, then rinse and let them dry completely. Keep in mind, water shouldn't be hot or it will damage the keycaps.

Buying a soft toothbrush for cleaning isn't a bad idea either.

For actual electronics I would understand distilled but like they're just plastic keycaps... idk what my friends are on about

Unless you have the chalkiest water ever, it's usually not a concern. You're cleaning plastic, not electronics.

its abs or pbt correct

#

in general its not metal or the electronics themselves plus you dry them prub with a towel or paper towel so not like the water hardness matters

#

also a side note: we are quite selective of who let mod our discord outside of employees and will kick people out if they dont behave as expected.
