Sticky Keys

Hello, when I was using my MacBook Air my sister spilled Coca-Cola all over it. Mostly all of the keys on the left side of the keyboard are sticky and take almost 5 seconds to pop back up. Does anyone know any fixes for sticky keys on the native MacBook Air keyboard?

Macbook keyboard still sticky after liquid damage repair I got my MacBook 14'' M1 Pro repaired two weeks ago from a juice spill. The internal core is working fine. The Apple team, however, did not replace my keyboard, and some of my keys are still sticky or make loud crackling noises when I type. It's almost like sugar residue blows some of the keys. Could Apple Fix this, or will I have to peel off the keys myself and clean them?

Spilled Nutella on Macbook Pro 13" (2020) Keyboard. I was very hungry yesterday, so I decided to go grab some nutella, and put it on a piece of bread. There was a generous amount of nutella, and when I sat down next to my macbook, I dropped it. I cleaned most of it off, but some of it got stuck in between the keys. The keys still work, however, the whole left side (where I dropped it), has the keys feeling very soft and they don't go down all the way. I don't want to go to apple because of their ridiculous prices, so how can I clean this without making my computer a goner. Is my computer a goner?
