Cleaning Laptop Keyboards

I almost flipped out the night I spilled Soda all over my beloved laptop, but after a week of "drying" (for the lack of a better term), the darn thing started working again.

So I pulled out all the keys, soaked them in soapy water, and cleaned them out, but I was wondering if there was an easy way to clean out the sticky dry soda from under the keys. It works fine but the buttons remain recessed and I can feel the stickyness hindering the keys. Do I have no other choice but to take it apart and clean the chassis?

Any tips would be much appreciated 🙂

My aunt claimed she could usually get about 3 cleanings with using rubbing alcohol before the kybd would stop working all together. Other than running a non-working kybd under hot water for about 5 minutes (still didn't work) I have not tried to clean a kybd.
