The process is getting increasingly frustrated to me. I try my hardest to prevent imperfections, yet they still happen on each key. The colors either blend or do not apply correctly, or (most annoying) bubbles form on various parts of the key. The bubbles can be pressed down but it either a) rips the paint open entirely, or b) creates a discoloration where the bubble was pressed down.
I am getting very frustrated and discouraged, but I guess I will keep trying. It sucks to have done 30 key caps in a row, and have almost all of them look beautiful, except for a single imperfection. I might message Ragnorock asking for tips and see if he would reply, but I don't know if he is active anymore.
Examples of the imperfections on otherwise good keycaps can be seen below.
