Title: Alps keycaps?
Post by: ManjyomeThunder on Fri, 10 September 2010, 00:07:05

I got a few Dell AT101Ws lately, and I decided I'd try to dye their keycaps along with my Unicomp's. The latter's came great, the Dells', not so much. Colors are very blotchy and inconsistent. Can anyone recommend a relatively cheap source of Alps compatible keycaps that might dye well?

the Keycaps on the SGI Granite are PBT and Dye Sub like the Unicomp.

Do not use SGI AT-101s for dying purposes, some people actually want to use those things...
