   A flathead screwdriver at the bottom (away from the number row) is
a gret lever to carefully pop off the key cap. Wash the keycap off and
dry thoroughly. If there's any gunk on the plastic post, use q-tips
and rubbing alcohol (put the alcohol on the q-tip, don't douse the
keyboard) to get it off. Finally, put the key back on.
