- wernercd 6y agoOr you can always remove the keys... and a can of flat black spray paint. Same effect - but with less sanding.
- jandrese 6y agoHard to find spray paint that will stick to plastic keys and not be rubbed off by your fingers.
- wernercd 6y agoLooking deeper, it looks like you're right. It would take the right spray paint and wouldn't be a zero effort as I remembered reading about it. With that said... there are a few good resources out there that probably weren't there (or I didn't find) the last time I looked. I ended up just spending extra for a DASKeyboard sans writing... but may still "convert" some of my other keyboards at some point (going to build a new house and I'll have a work room when it's up)

- wrycoder 6y agoOn cheaper keyboards (I have one) the lettering wears off. And it’s IBM branded with M-style switches!
