Space Bar Sticking

After thoroughly spraying the space bar with air i placed my macbook pro back on my kitchen table and happily discovered that its space bar was again fully operational. I wouldn t call it sticking. A little bit of goof off or goo gone on a cotton swab may help get rid of sticky residue that s causing your keys to stick.

So i took you advice and gave it another look and cleaning with the tri flow lubricant on the metal bars and well there ya go better. Depress the button on the can to blow the air around the key. Spacebar sticking and being generally obnoxious. My space bar was getting a bit sticky and making things slowwwww.

Press the space bar to see if it still sticks. Do this on all sides of the key to ensure it is clean. If i am firm when pressing the space anywhere it always works. Please keep in mind.

Pressing on the left side of the space has less success than pressing on the right side.
