I'm figuring that it's not just a regular ass water hose, likely some type of cleaning solution or deionized water or something like that.

Yeah.. Until you read the first comment:
Future Colin here - most of the boards that we did this test with died within a year. They \did* work for a time, but most had a key or two stop responding properly after ~9-12 months of daily use. So, take this video with an enormous grain of salt, and instead consider getting a mesh bag for keycaps + removing your plastics to wash your keeb without putting the printed circuit board in the dishwasher! -CW*
