OK, I'm confused. When I looked at the other laser etched they don't have color. Is that an infill for the grey color on the white keys?

BTW, I'm referring to the set below.

I belive those are laser ENGRAVED while the others are laser ETCHED :)

Thank you kmiller8!

So if they are engraved, does that mean that there is a color fill as part of the process?

Still learning here, so thanks in advance!

Glue?!? Where are you finding glue on your key caps?

they are glued to the foam underneath them so they wont move during shipping
you can rub it off but I was hoping for a more efficient way

I don't think there is an infill, it just burns the plastic to a darker color.

I've updated the Order Status with the trackings numbers.

I received the 104 keys from the KBC supplier like that, try using a cloth with denatured alcohol. Works better than rubbing with your hands.

Thanks kmiller8 for helping me answer that question, The GoW keys are laser etched, meaning they use a laser to burn the letterings onto the cap and not using infills.

just finished replacing all the keycaps on my filco and it looks absolutely gorgeous and feels really nice now! I must say though that KBT should definitely rethink their keycaps packaging because it was hell to remove the glue from them. they could learn a thing or two from ducky.
for anyone else having a problem with removing the glue I discovered a method that made it much faster.
you should grab one key and start nibbing with your index finger and thumb on the glue until you removed all of it from the key. then you will have a little ball of glue between your fingers. use this ball to remove the glue from the rest of the keys. just stick it to the parts that has glue and peel it off. in the end you will have a large ball of yellow glue so go and stick it on someones shirt after you pretend to pick your nose! just kidding  :p

Mine arrived just today (after 3 weeks :D)
Here are a few pics : imgur
You might notice the remaining stock return key that I could not get rid of since I'm using an ISO layout :-[

btw, sorry for the bad quality, I've no other camera but my smartphone one  :-[

Anyway, I'm pretty satisfied with the result :)

They arrived surprisingly fast. The fastest parcel I got from Singapore to NZ took 4 days... and these arrived even quicker. :eek:
