I'm going to clean a Sun 3 keyboard today. Its keycaps are filthy. The
strategy I've used in the past for the keycaps is:
* Goto the kitchen. There is a double sink there.
* Fill one sink with hot, soapy water and the other will cold, non-soapy
water.
* Dump the keycaps into the hot sink and let them soak for a while.
* Slosh the keycaps around a bit.
* Transfer the keycaps to the cold water. If necessary, wipe grime from each
one as it is transferred.
* Arrange the keycaps for drying. Dry them with a hair dryer.
* Test for dryness by tapping a table with a keycap. If any water drops
appear on the table, repeat the previous step.
I have a dishwasher, but I don't trust it.
