I am not an OCD or weird person who has everything in order neat and clean BUT when it comes to keyboards and monitors, I am obsessed.
So, I ask, how often do you all take your keyboard apart and clean inside and ALL the keys?
I do it minimum, 3 times a year.

Way too meticulous for me, but hey, whatever turns your crank. Myself, compressed gas duster and a disinfectant wipe for the keyboard and controller every couple of weeks. The monitor, a screen cleaner with microfiber cloth. Inside tower, compressed gas a couple of times a year.

I tried the canned air but was curious about where the crud went. Took the keyboard top and bottom apart and there was a lot of crud around the edges. I do wipe the keyboard off every once and a while but it is amazing how much crud gets in your keys....and I don't eat or drink anywhere near it.

Usually never clean mine except maybe this little brush I have I will sweep it up a bit..
Though I am reminded of the time years ago, late 90's, 1'st computer, old Microsoft mechanical keyboard. I had a run in with a can of Diet Coke and it decided to spill all over the keyboard which fried it, some keys worked, some not.
So someone told me about putting it in the dishwasher, no soap. Did that, then put it upside down over a heat vent for about 3 days to dry...
Worked perfectly again.
