How do I clean something as bad as this?

Painstakingly

Dish washer.
Bottom rack.

It's a membrane keyboard anon, you can easily take it apart and just wash the plastic.

It's One keyboard, Michael. What Could It Cost, $10?
Seriously. Just buy another. Or get one from work. Your IT guy always have too much of them.

remove the keys and throw it in a tub of soap and water and scrub
then literally hang it up to dry.
i'm not joking. as long as you fully dry it after it'll be fine.
>>
>>107793618
Take off the back, remove the PCB.
Throw everything else in the dish washer.
Wait for it to dry.
Reassemble.
>>
>>107793618
I've cleaned worse. You can just do a quick clean with compressed air, like >>107793668 mentioned, or you can wash it. Just remove the top part, remove all keys and clean everything thoroughly. You can lube it after if needed, but I wouldn't even bother with such a cheap keyboard. Just clean it and it's fine to use.

Why not buy a new one anon? Also show your hands please.
>>
>>107793618
Take out all the keys, give them a soap bath, clean the keyboard with compressed air and alcohol wipes
>>
Toothbrush, alcohol. Very easy clean if you remove all the keys.

The problem is humidity in the room in winter and sweaty hands in summer. In summer, I try to wipe it down with a cloth after using it, and in winter, I put a cover on the keyboard before going to sleep. Also i've been using the same keyboard for 8 years
>>
>>107793618
just wet some paper and wipe over it, it's not hard.
>>
>>107793668
that's for getting high you dumny.

remove keys and plastics, soak them in a bowl with warm water and dish-soap, then use a toothbrush and start scrubbing.

rinse, dry, put it all back together and lubricate the keys, yes even if they are membrane keys, put some silicone grease on them
>>
>>107793618
I'm amazed it still works. Not because of the filth (easily cleaned by removing the keys, dumping them in warm soapy water and scrubbing them and a brush or comp air for the rest) but because we have those exact Logicrap keyboards at my job (huge supply in storage) and they get replaced pretty regularly.
The space bar is always the first casualty, starts leaning and missing clicks. Then the numpad soon after.

>if you testify with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
i have bad news anon, i dont think your keyboard is going to make it.

>if you testify with your mouth that Jesus is Lord,
meant to say, if you testify with your mouth the Lord Jesus.

couldnt u literally give it a shower and then let it dry and it would be fine
>>

Lenovo USB keyboards are great. Bit on the heavier side to type with. Plus they have full range of 6 keys at the same time.
Logitech cheapo keyboards only recognize 2 keys max or something like that.

>take the whole thing apart
>remove all the keys, the membrane, the pcb, etc
>put all the keys in a mesh bag (usually used for shoelaces/small items) and put them in the washing machine
>scrub the membrane and plastic shell pieces with dish soap
>wipe down pcb with alcohol
>reassemble
good as new

Pull out keys and rub it with cloth or toothbrush. If you're lazy just throw it in sink under water or even better use the pressure washer.
>>
Isopropyl
>>
pull the keys, put some gloves on, and throw the keys in rubbing alcohol and scrub them

I can already imagine the smell of alcohol and the headache that comes with it. Done it so many times it's kinda relaxing.

doing great,
this keyboard will be good as new in no time
>>
>>107793618
It looks like a very cheap, basic, standard keyboard so cleaning it wouldn't be worth the effort. Throw it away and buy another one.
>>
>>107793618
I am afraid, your keyboard needs an abortion.
>>
>>107793618
What the fuck is going on with that left arrow key?
>>
>>107793618
Make sure you have a picture of the keyboard for reference but you have it already
Get a dessert spoon and pry open the space bar from there pry open every single key try to be as careful as possible
Get warm not hot water and shampoo put all of them there
clean the keyboards insides with a brush
Then put the keys back in
