Is it possible to remove any of the keys, i.e., the F1 key? I want to avoid hitting it by accident and never use it.

Yes. They can literally just be pulled out. I just tried it with the F1 key before answering this and then put the keycap back on without an issue. I think bigger keys (like shift) require more finesse though.

Im a bit of a cleanfreak and I've heard that the keys dont really rub off, but rather "get dirty". Has anyone been succesful in preventing this?

I've been using the same 6Gv2 for a good 5 years now. The keys look like-new. None of the lettering has rubbed off or even shifted. The main keys are a little shiny from use, but I wouldn't call it dirty. If anything, because of the black keys, it shows less wear and dirt than a white keyboard.

I need a Ñ and other symbols for spanish language, Is there a way to add custom key caps?

I dont know when this sale ends, but they have a Spanish version of this keyboard here: http://1sale.com/electronics/audio-gaming/ss-64229/

Is the edition with "black" keys Cherry MX as well? It says the red version is, but doesn't say for sure whether the black is Cherry MX or not.

The black edition has Cherry MX black switches. If you want those cherry MX reds then you will have to buy the red version and deal with the red background behind the keys.
