I spilled orange juice on my keyboard. How do i get the keys back to normal?

[AlexK27]

I spilled orange juice on my keyboard yesterday. I instantly dried it up with a Kleenex then the next day it dried and became a tad bit sticky. Wasn't too bad was getting annoying so i dabbed it and dropped some drops of 70% alcohol inside the mechanical switch. Then sprayed compressed air inside, then i sprayed QD electronic cleaner. I repeated this multiple times but it feels a little harder to press and jams sometimes on the way up. I have a roccat ryos mk pro blue cherry mx switch.

Anything that leaves a residue is going to cause problems.

Check the keyboard's manual for cleaning instructions. You may be able to pop off the key caps and clean using distilled water. Use cotton swabs but gently so as not to leave any fibers behind.

Be sure the keyboard is unplugged and plan on two or three cleanings to get all of the gunk/stickiness out. Air dry throughly before use.

Hopefully it is not too late to salvage the keyboard.

Ditto, this is pretty much the process you want to undergo for most mechanical keyboards.
