You can wash your keyboard in the washmachine, wrap it in a towel and tie it with string, dont forget to make sure its dry before turning it back on. Avoid using paper towels, toilet paper, tissue paper, or something like your shirt to wipe the LCD screen. Avoid cleaning products that contain ammonia, ethyl alcohol, acetone, toluene, ethyl acid, or methyl chloride. These chemicals can react with the materials that the LCD screen is made of which could yellow the screen or cause other kinds of damage. Never spray liquid directly on the LCD screen or it could run inside the monitor and cause damage. A 50/50 mix of white vinegar or iso-propyl alcohol (Maplins) and distilled/ de-ionised water (local garage) can be used on a soft Spectacle type cleaning cloth and dried with a shamoise leather, dont put too much pressure on the screen or you can cause damage if its lcd. You can leave the flat screen on and turn down the brightness to make the screen black which will help you see where the muck is.
