  the logic board easier and safer.

• The first thing that we need to do is remove this
  protective sticker. This helps prevent things
  from getting inside the device. Got quite a bit
  of adhesive, but it will come off with a little
  bit of effort. We need to then unscrew all of the
  screws that are surrounding the border. There is
  a handful in the middle as well and they are
  different types.
• MacBook Pro keyboards are delicate devices making
  it easy for dust, dirt, crumbs, and other
  particles to cause problems with the mechanics of
  the instrument. When these molecules get in, they
  render the keys inoperable and need to be forced
  out. Use a can of compressed air to blast out the
  offending debris from under the keys.
