I have a 17" Macbook Pro that I spilled a tiny bit of water into, and ever since then, when I push the 'delete' button, the [ bracket appears. Whenever I push the left shift button, the letter 'Q' appears. Whenever I push 'return' my windows split as if I had pushed 'f11' and whenever I push the right shift button by brightness goes down. Oh and my volume controls don't work. - - I took the Pro apart following online instructions and cleaned the keyboard thoroughly; all layers using alcohol. I noticed a lot of cat hair and stains, and thought i did a really good job cleaning up... 2 hours later, I had the thing back together, but all the same problems keep occurring. Any suggestions or feedback would be GREATLY appreciated!!

Thanks

There's no getting away from it, you'll need a new keyboard.
