Magic keyboard spill accident

[Ben J.]

I'm talking Apple Magic bluetooth keyboards. It hasn't yet, but I know it will happen; I will spill a beer, some soda, a cappuchino, something over my keyboard. What would be the first thing to do: turn it off and set it to dry for a week and hope it's not all sticky? Shut it off and flush it with water to get rid of sugars and stuff? Will it shortcut, mess with the batteries? Solvents? Hairdryers?

Dunno what the first thing you'll do is - just the last thing.

Replace it.

Thanks. Nice little video on how to detach keys to help clean and repair them.
Will come in handy as I have a troublesome key already.
