Those look amazing, did you have to retrobright?

Mine arrived in pretty bad condition. By bad, I don’t just mean yellowed, I mean very scratched. I tried sanding my numpad to see if that would help, but it didn’t do much. I will try to retrobright once I pick up some peroxide cream.

Very disappointed for the price I paid for a WoB set...

Here are some pictures of the set I recieved.

I attempted to sand the numpad, still in process. I was expecting WoB, not WoG...

after you sand the Numpad  will you do anything to smooth out the sanding or will you just use as is afterwards? I was thinking about sanding but after one day of retrobrighting the short shift set it turned out pretty good.  Need to Retrobright the long shift for a couple of days and maybe use a stronger solution since those caps for really bad lol.

I used the numpad as a test, I'l probably just retrobright the rest of the set. I never use numpads, hence why it was my test set. I don't like the feel after sanding. I might try to source some clear solution and try a method I had seen on Youtube. And by the looks of my keys on the bottom, they don't even seem cleaned...

Are these newly made - are they doubleshot?

If so, please add NorDe to your White-on-Black variant, and also blank Windows keys, and I will order three sets immediately. Others will follow. Please see https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=97874 for the NorDe WoB conversation.

I just ordered the GMK Carbon NorDe for 486 USD. While the GMK Carbon is excellent, if your set would have been available I'd have ordered yours instead.
