The next step is to figure out what kind of liquid got on the laptop and clean it up. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Normal water has a much lower acidity level. The high acidity of sugary and alcoholic drinks makes them efficient distributors of electricity. These liquids are not only hard to clean off of electrical panels, but they also have the potential to permanently harm the circuits and ports on your laptop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Depending on how much liquid spilled, you can position the laptop so that the screen and keyboard form an upside down V on a table. This will help the liquid drain out of the laptop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wipe down the computer with a paper towel or clean rag. Do not take the laptop apart unless you are confident in your knowledge of computer hardware. Laptop water damage repair can be quite costly if not done properly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\" \/>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have any laptop water damage and need help, call us at\u00a0<a href=\"tel:1-800-620-5285\">1-800-620-5285<\/a>. \u00a0Karls Technology is a nationwide computer service company with offices in many major cities.
