# first of all, take a photo of your keyboard to help remember layout
then, pop out all keys.
Using a stiff brush (get a cheap nailbrush specifically for this) then clean out keyboard base.
wash keys in hot soapy water - leave to dry.
then , pop up the picture on your comp of the keyboard layout and pop them back into place

They'll 'ping' quite well - and far - so watch out

# or just lay the keys out on the carpet in the layout that they came off
and i'd avoid washing the keys in lots of water, as they may suffer the horrors of 'lego-never-dry' syndrome

# that's why I tend to wash them at the end of the day when I need to.
you can then leave them to dry overnight on a teatowel, with a teatowel covering them
