Spilled water over my laptop’s keyboard
LockedAs the title says it, I’ve spilled water over my keyboard. After it happened, I turned the laptop upside down and let it sit there for not even a minute (big mistake). The laptop was still on and the keyboard worked. After watching a video, I wanted to research something and noticed the keys were garbled. As such: te3st he3llo9 ho9w2 ar4e3 yo9u7. I let it sit overnight and tried removing gunk, dust and crumbs the water may have spread using a vacuum. I think it worked, as some keys started working properly. I’m 100% sure that the keyboard is completely dry and that it started malfunctioning when the water dried.

These keys seem to be connected. When I press one of them, the rest appears (not always in the same order). Writing this message was a struggle.
Would a compressed air can do the job for the rest of the keys or is there corrosion or other non-removable by air gunk?
