How do you clean a laptop without screwing it up?

[-SD-]

Ive got a Dell C600 with one of those soft kind of mushy screens that needs cleaning badly. the keyboard needs cleaning also. pretty much the whole damn thing needs cleaning. how do I do all of this without damaging or otherwise messing it up?

buy a can of air (dust off) and some electronic device alcohol wipes. Use the air to blow off dust and crap that is cought in between the keys, then use the wipes to wipe the screen and the the keys clean.

rubbing alcohol.wont harm anything. you could dip the whole thing in it.

Disassembling the keyboard should be quite easy ..

And next time, just don't eat pizza when you are typing !!

lighter fluid works well too,but will take the varnish off internal components which isnt that bad anyway.

compressed air and propanol
