We have a few hundred keyboards we'd like to clean sometime over
semester break.  These are mostly detachable computer terminal
keyboards in plastic housing.

What would you recommend we use for solvent and method?  Something
along the lines of dunking the keyboard in a container of a
(preferably non-toxic) liquid?  Hopefully this would clean/lube the
contacts and clean the dirt on the case without eating the case too.

Any suggestions?  Followups to me or comp.terminals please.
