I accidentally dropped coffee on my keyboard and promptly cleaned it up. Unfortunately, a few keys are now stuck and I can’t use them anymore. Besides soldering to fix the switches, have you considered other fixes? I saw someone submerging their keyboard in distilled water or isopropyl alcohol—could that help? Just be careful not to damage anything else.

The keyboard prevents taking off the switch unless I acquire soldering skills.

Using Q-tips or electronic cleaners with isopropyl alcohol works well. I usually avoid distilled water because it dries more slowly, whereas IPA dries almost immediately.
