my hands are pretty oily and my keyboards get pretty oily also, are there ways to remove it and make the keyboard keys' rough texture reappear again?

my friend is telling me to use baking soda and vinegar but i wanna get more advice first :)

At least he didn't tell you to use bleach and ammonia.

I have actually tanken my keyboard apart and put in in the dishwasher (after spilling a whole glass of soymilk on it). It works pretty well, but I realized that not all of the letters stayed on ;)

Try rubbing alcohol.

You're going to get "chesticles" according to that soy milk thread.
