Cleaning the Sub 37's keyboard
What's the best way to periodically clean my Sub 37's keyboard? I keep a dust cover on it when it's not being used but it always seems to get some dust on there. Will 409 hurt it? 93% alcohol? Thanks!

Never, ever use any solvent-based cleaners, that includes alcohol.
Lightly vacuum the keyboard without touching it with the nozzle tool, then use a 'wet wipe' type cleaning cloth that doesn't contain alcohol. Optionally dry off with a soft clean cloth or leave to air dry. I use a cloth otherwise I find the key surface a bit too 'squeaky clean'.
If there's not much dust then skip the vacuuming step.
If there's a lot of dust you're not practising enough
