How do I properly clean a Razer Blackwidow Chroma keyboard?

[Starchild]

I'm not sure an aircan will do anything. I've had it for a year now, and it's collected a bit of gunk and uh..Hair. I have long hair..I'm not sure what to do. I'd just remove the keys, but I'm afraid of damaging the keyboard. I don't even know if I can remove them.

You need to remove keys if you want to clean it.

So you're implying that I can infact remove the keys without breaking the keyboard? Do I need a special tool, or do I just get underneath them with my nails and pull them off like an ordinary keyboard?

They lift/pop right off. They are just light weight keycaps.

[Samadhi]

Compressed air in a can for between the keys.

Alcohol wipes or similar for the keys.

There are lots of videos on this topic on youtube.

They pop right off with ease. The keycaps just sit on top of the switches. No tools needed.
Remove all keycaps and blow off all the dust, use a un-used paint brush if needed for wiping away dirt/dust/hair. Once that area is cleaned, reinstall all keycaps. Then wipe down the keycaps with alcohol or baby wipes. Then brush clean/dry.

Very simple, not rocket science.

Finally an answer that goes into detail..Took long enough. I was concerned being that this is my first mechanical keyboard and I've had people warn me against taking the keys off myself. Thank you. Well, alright..I guess I'll get to it, then.

Even without any compressed air on-hand, should still be easy to clean using just brush + alcohol wipes. Just avoid anything harsh that could damage plastics or gloss finishes; such as bleach or anything close to that.

Also, with the keycaps removed, do a key by key test (the switches) and see if any feel stiff compared to others. If a switch is getting a bit worn/stiff, remove the switch and clean it with contact cleaner spray. Which is safe to use on such electronics and wont conduct.
