Works great for keyboards too. I've resurrected a couple //gs ADB =20 keyboards this way...
Cleaning keyboards with water will *only* work for older keyboards with mechanical switches. Most ADB keyboards have mechanical switches but there are some exceptions so check before dumping a keyboard into a bucket of soapy water.
In my experience, trying to repair/clean membrane based keyboards is unlikely to be successful. Following an accident at work, a colleague stripped and cleaned a dozen membrane based keyboards (Cherry brand for PCs) using distilled water and alcohol. The things took ages to dry and only one fully worked.
