sticky keyboard after soda spill

I spilled some coke by accident all over my macbook pro 2019 three days ago and now some of the keys are sticky and kind of stuck. Is there a way of maybe removing and cleaning the keys without doing any damage myself? In case how?

MacBook Pro 13", macOS 10.14

There likely could be damages from the cola's phosphoric acid. This can erode solder

+ metal on logic board; may require ultrasonic & immersion to remove residual cola.


Depending on how far liquid has gone, cleanup & neutralization may save logic board.


Good luck & happy trails!🌻🌤
