[In Stock] PBTFANS X-RAY
Salvun Keycap is still in production, estimated arrival will be at the end of Oct.
Description
X-Ray is a keycap set that features a clear-on-white, low-contrast design, paying tribute to transparent tech peripherals. Inspired by these devices, these translucent keycaps highlight the internal structures and construction properties that define them.
From certain perspectives, these keycaps almost appear blank. Yet, when any directional light source shines on them, it casts shadows, revealing the depth of the legends.

Additional Disclaimer
-
These keycaps are semi-transparent; therefore, colors may be highly sensitive to lighting and the angle of view.
-
The keycap base is opaque and is not intended to be used with per key rgb shine through lighting.
-
One of the challenges of making semi-transparent keycaps is the manufacturing constraints of double-shot injection molding. This process leaves visible “holes” in closed legends, which detracts from the minimal aesthetic. To cover these “holes”, we came up with a novel solution that involves painting the back of the keycaps with white Tamiya acrylic paint.
