I realize that some colors and LEDs will bleed through some caps more than others, but has anyone actually tried to coat the inside of a cap with something with the intent of keeping the backlight from coming through the cap at all?
I was thinking of trying this with fingernail polish. I am thinking to get the best lighting around the caps and not through the caps, one would want to use at least 2 layers. First layer in black to block/absorb as much light as possible and then a layer or 2 of white on top of that to attempt to reflect as much as possible.
Thoughts or comments?
If anyone has any spare caps with a backlit board with fairly bright LEDs I would love to see some experiments. The reason I am asking is because I like the look of backlighting around the caps but I don't want any coming through the cap.
