Yes, in my case I did it in a mostly dark room with a small UV light (that
I use for erasing EEPROMS), so it didn't get a full sun treatment, but it
did take the better part of a week. And, as you say, I had problems with
keys constantly wanting to float away. I figure next time I try it I may
get some silly putty to put in the underside to weigh them down or
something.
