Can we color PBT caps?
« on: Thu, 28 April 2016, 15:21:16 »
Hi guys :D new question here :D

I`m searching a spacebar for my fc660m old model, but it`s impossibile to find. And the mod with glue is not easy to do well. So i`m thinking...is it possibile to color PBT keycaps? I really want a perfect green or white spacebar  ;D

You can! There are guides for it https://imgur.com/a/P6RHv . You might have a hard time getting the *exact* color you want without some experimentation.

I wouln't try and use sandpaper to change the feel of caps. Just get some ABS caps or a smoother PBT set.

"We are on the precipice of signing an agreement to advance talks with Iran that preserves the good parts of former President Barack Obama’s Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) while amplifying its flaws.
Mr. Obama came to an agreement that did not involve America’s most precious treasure, the lives and limbs of our soldiers.  The 1.7 billion dollars of frozen Iranian assets released by Obama pales in comparison to the 300 billion being floated as a rebuilding fund.
So far, speculation that Iran will be free in the future to continue its nuclear program is the opposite of Trump’s stated goal for the war and in direct opposition to what Mr. Obama negotiated."
