Ive bought some Gateron Box Ink Pink V2 switches to replace the White v3 switches for my modifier keys & space bar of my Vortex M0110. The whites are a tad too light & have a bit too much wobble for my taste.
Now, I've never lubed or filmed any switch, as the only board I've been using for years now was a HHKB. So I'm very new to MX style switches.
Lubing is simple enough, but I've read several times that either Box style switches cannot be filmed altogether, or that it doesn't make any sense to film them.
The films I'm using are standard TX switch films, 0.150 mm. They seem to fit the Box pinks just fine & the key feel doesn't seem negatively impacted.
My question is: should I use films on my Box pinks or not? Are there any disadvantages to filming Gateron box ink switches? Thanks.
