I accidently spilled non-acetone nail polish remover on my keyboard a day ago. I immediately turned off the laptop and wiped everything down with a paper towel. The keyboard and track point seem to be working fine, but the touch pad is having problems. It still registers when I move my finger around on it and even is able to scroll down web pages, but it will not register clicks when I click down on the touch pad or even when I tap it with my finger. Will I have to replace the whole palm rest area or should I just wait for it to dry some more?
Lenovo Thinkpad X230T touchpad not registering clicks after liquid spill?

It's already dry - it evaporates almost immediately. The fluid turns the contacts to goop, as they are made from carbon-rubber. It's done.
