Has anyone done this!!!!

Glue and keyboards

I would not try that myself, but the basic idea is not as crazy as it sounds. There is actually a commercial product that I've used at work used to clean surfaces you don't dare touch because they scratch easily and once scratched are spoiled.

Cute. But given that it's pretty easy to remove the keycaps for cleaning any decent keyboard (and that a cheap keyboard is disposable anyway), doesn't seem to be much point.

I am not promoting this, just wondering if anyone has done this.

I too, remove key caps, disassemble boards and etc.

White PVA glues like that conduct when set. No way would I let the stuff near any electronic device.

And yes, I learnt that they are conductive the hard way …

It's interesting, but at work, rather than glue, I find that a cup of coffee poured over a keyboard is a simpler way to get a new one.

Now someone really needs to program a 'traveling salesman' solver into their HP calculator to find the most efficient way to glue up (screw up?) their keyboard.
