I spilled coffee on the touchpad of my laptop, will this mess up anything on my computer?

Question

It only got on the touchpad, and it wasn't very much. maybe a teaspoon. It's working fine now, but I'm just nervous that it'll mess something up. Please help.

Answer 1

Make sure it's not sticky, you'll be perfectly fine. I can't tell you how many times something's happened to one of my laptops...



I got a Toshiba Satellite A135-S4656 as my mail laptop for now, I've gotten water around the track pad several times, it's been dropped 3 times, and it still acts AWESOME like something never happened.



If anything happens, ask

Wipe it gently with a damp cloth, cotton / flannels., tissue paper should be fine too

then wipe off again with dry cloth or tissue



the coffee may leave a sticky residue
