just spam all the keys, they will eventually go back to 100%
i spilled some soda over my old blackwidow and it took like a month for a key to get the click back.
There's no guarantee of this, because if the sticky stuff is between the slider and center channel, or the side slider channel, it would just brush the stickiness up and down.. NEVER fully recovering...
If you've ever taken apart an MX switch you'd know that the Center stem extends into a "well" where the "nub" on the bottom is... If sticky stuff gets in there,, it is unlikely that it will EVER flush out
BECAUSE,, when you PUSH the key DOWN, it closes that "well"... thus if you're flushing the key without taking it apart, YOU WILL NEVER be able to flush stickiness out of that portion of the switch...
The effort required to FULLY clean the board, OR soldering in/out switches, well exceeds the cost of buying a new one.

If you're one who can settle for a gimp board,, hey,, then you're golden... but why do that when you can have a new one for only $100
