Hey Bernie, Sounds strange doesn't it?
To elaborate, I do not believe this applies to the general periodic maintenance of a keyboard whatsoever. By chance, I became aware of this procedure being performed on keyboards whose functionality was rendered useless after fluid spillage i.e. soft drinks, coffee, etc. Normally, the keyboard is pronounced dead and a replacement is purchased. But as long as ten years ago, the good folk at Publishers Printing in Shepherdsville discovered that a subsequent washing of the afflicted keyboard in the dishwasher rendered them useful once again. However, I should add that once washed the keyboard was given ample time to dry (up to two weeks). I've never tried it but what have you got to lose?
