I need your advice.

Ok guys my wife made my day this morning. While helping with our child she accidentally spilled her entire cup of hot coffee on her laptop.

Now I've completely dismantled the laptop and clean all but the keyboard.

Sony viao keyboards are attached to the top case housing. There permanent fixtures. Keyboard has the most damage. I don't want to remove each little key. So I washed the entire top case plastic part keyboard and all. Yes there isn't any vital equipment attached. Only the keyboard and touchpad panel. Those two are melted taps into the main top case.

At the moment I'm letting it drip dry. I'm sure I've removed mose of the coffee in the keyboard. But the water will take some time. Those laptop keyboards have layers.. Paper thin. The water in those sleeves will take alot of time to dry out.

My question is should I use a hair dryer or very low heat oven with the door open?

I don't want to melt it..

My old dell laptop I could remove the keyboard from the case... so I had no issues. but this time.. I can't see ...

And thanks for your help guys...
