Reply to comment by QWERKey-UK in KEYBOARD EMERGENCY! Need advice for what to do when keyboards are filled with water... by Zev

Thank you for the advice! I have stripped them down and it seems like all the switches made it super dry, I would not have guessed they are as water-sealed as they seem to be!

I have them stripped and heading out to get IPA and looking at silica gel, have not heard of that before!

It's those little packets with bead like things inside that is often part of electronics packaging. It's not make or break, but if you can store the boards with some of that it may be helpful. Otherwise, just a warm dry place for a few days.

Merry Christmas, and I hope everything is OK.
