   I have had some success with vintage keyboards simply putting them through the   
   dishwasher - keys down, upper rack, 1/3 the normal detergent. But, be sure the   
   unit does not have an exposed heating element or you might melt the keyboard.   
   Newer keyboards do    
   quite well as long as they are not self-powered (battery type).     
      
   Remember - the alternative is landfill, so heroic measures are justified.
