Sometimes my keyboard keys simply get a a bit dirty from oils on my hands. This is not a method Apple will approve of but I will take a small piece of soft tissue and moisten it very slightly with isopropyl alcohol from a drugstore/chemist. Make sure your keyboard is turned off and very lightly wipe the dirty keys. Be very careful not to push hard enough to squeeze out any liquid. You sometimes just have to spend 20 seconds wiping a single key.
