KeyboardCleanTool for MacHere a little tool that may not be very useful (Apple rejected it for not being very useful) but maybe someone likes the idea. It just blocks your keyboard input so you can wipe over your keyboard in order to clean it.

"I Have A Clean Keyboard Now"
| Version: KeyboardCleanTool 1.0
Pros
It is simple and works as claimed, Apple missed the boat when they rejected this one! My "White MacBook" was more like a white ring around the keyboard because it is always on and I almost never shut it down except when I finally clean my keyboard.
Cons
When Activated The Keyboard Didn't Work... Duh ;-)
Oh wait! That was supposed to happen...
I just wrote this instead of "None" because nothing should be Unanimous...
Summary
Easy to install just unzip and drag it to the applications folder. Click on it to open and lock, and click on it to unlock and close. Oh Gawd! Did I mention my keyboard is so clean now? Thank You Andreas!
"Great app. I keep it in my dock for when I need it."
| Version: KeyboardCleanTool 1.0
Pros
Works quickly and efficiently and exactly as advertised. And its FREE.
Cons
There are no cons.
Summary
I find it funny that Mac rejected this app. I see no downside to it and I find it very useful.
"This is a handy like tool"
| Version: KeyboardCleanTool 1.0
Pros
Works great
Cons
None so far
Summary
This is worth the free download
"Simple and very useful"
| Version: KeyboardCleanTool 1.0
Pros
Does what it says it does, in that it "turns off" the keyboard for cleaning.
Cons
None that I've found.
Summary
Because of the layout of my office the USB lead from the keyboard is hidden behind a shelf beneath my desk. I usually leave my computer on and cleaning the keyboard is therefore somewhat problematic - not least because I also eat breakfast, lunch and occasionally dinner when I'm seated at the Mac. This terrific little app won't save any lives, but it does make scrubbing my keyboard a lot easier than before. Full marks to the developer for thinking of messy slobs like me.
"Very Useful"
| Version: KeyboardCleanTool 1.0
Pros
Blocks all the keys unlike Keyboard Cleaner application.
Cons
Not found any.
