Post by: forlornsoul on Fri, 25 April 2014, 04:03:51

are pbt key caps made from colored resin or made from white resin then dyed?

Solid colour, they are usually not dyed, although they do accept dye well.

I think some of the "rainbow" sets may be white that has been dyed, but I am not certain of that.
