[QUOTE="pepss95, post: 1797284, member: 399954"] [b]Spilled about 3 ml of coffee on my Macbook pro 2017 speaker grills[/b] [B][B][B][/B][/B][/B]I accidently spilled some coffee liquid (flat white) on my Macbook pro 2017 Touchbar, luckily I had a keyboard cover which protected the keyboard, but some fell on the speakers grill (on the right side) I cleaned it right away with my fingers and napkins then put a napkin on the speakers grills, closed the lid and put the macbook upside down so it can be drained somehow with gravity, I think the napkin was very very slightly wet that it can barely be noticed after I removed it, then put a new napkin again and left it upside down till I reached home 2-3 hours later, I removed the napkin it was dry and I used a vaccum cleaner 5-10 times on the speakers and the keyboard close to it ,The macbook is working normaly till now and the speakers also are working as usual I guess, I’m really worried that there might be some damage that I can encounter later, my question is , How long should I wait to be relieved that nothing would happen ? It's has been about 40 hours now since all of this happened and I used a lamp to heat the grills for about 30 mins, a fan too and used the vacuum cleaner one more time and so far I can't see any problem or malfunctioning but I'm still worried... And also can you tell me if there is something else I should do ? I live in Egypt and the Apple Retailers here are not professional at all and they take too much time and money to do any repair so that's not an option too Sorry for the long post. Thank you in advance. [/QUOTE]
