Nice tap
Just easier to clean and if you spill stuff it stops damage , I have went through a few keyboards and a laptop over the years spilling stuff on themout of interest why do you need waterproof keyboard?
only real application i could think of is a computer in control of a dairy milking parlour (reads an electronic collar on each cow and stores data about how much milk each one gives and any illnesses etc) as these are often a a dirty room that isn't all that dry always (the farm i was at today has the computer in the same room as the industrial karcher steam cleaner/pressure washer right next to the milking parlour)

I tried that before but never got the keyboard to work again , I did dry it with a hair dryer so not sure if it was that which damaged it.With a regular keyboard, cleaning is easy, no matter what you pour into it.
Undo the six or eight screws on the back and separate the top and bottom casings. The top casing comes off with all the keys and no electronics usually. You can wash the top/keys in the sink with some washing up liquid, rinse it, and hang it on the washing line to dry. You may need to wipe the rubber membrane between the top and bottom casings with a damp cloth but thats no big deal. Reassembly is the reverse etc etc.
I'm sorry to hear that. The traumas to my keyboards are mainly coffee and beer spills, together with some peanut shrapnel. All these tend to make the keys stick a bit. Washing the top casing has always worked for me. It just frees-up the mechanicals. It's important to re-align the rubber membrane between the top and bottom casings correctly before you put it back together.I tried that before but never got the keyboard to work again , I did dry it with a hair dryer so not sure if it was that which damaged it.
