Series 80 keyboard cleaning

[Dave Frederickson]

1. Remove all the keycaps by pulling straight up, preferably using a keycap puller.
2. Clean each keyswitch using isopropyl alcohol and a cotton swab. Operate the switch several times during this step.
3. Clean the switch contacts using DeoxIT Gold and a cotton swab.
4. You may lubricate the plastic parts of the switch mechanism using a plastic-safe lubricant. Armor All even works however some folks have an aversion to the product.
5. Take all the keycaps and wash them in a solution of mild detergent. Dry thoroughly and optionally shine them up with Armor All.
6. Reinstall keycaps.
