You have 2 options as the keyboard isnt easily removable.

One is to remove the key caps and and clean underneath them.

Two is to use compressed air to clean underneath the keys.

If 2 doesnt work 1 is the way to go.

WHEN REMOVING THE CAPS, BE CAREFUL NOT TO APPLY TOO MUCH PRESSURE AS YOU WILL BREAK EITHER THE CAP OR THE MECHANISM INSIDE!

Hope this helps as this was the 4th or 5th time of me writing this. If it did please hit the accept answer button!

I would recommend you to give your laptop to a near by computer store they will open the laptop for you.

If you want to do it yourself-

Remove all the screws you can see. Disk drive , ram vent etc.

Make sure to remove battery and disconnect adapter. There is space between upper plastic(covering mobo) and area below it. find it and use a thin screwdriver to open it. carefully clean it. the removing process is very dangerous that's why going to a store is recommended .

It actually isnt very dangerous. Ive taken apart countless computers with no issues. A dissasembly video would be nice. Also if you did ANY research, you would know that there is no "seam" between the 2 halves as this was put into another material and the keyboard is not easily removed.
