Does the paint from the letters last more than two years?

I have had 2 of these keyboards for one year and I have seen no degradation in paint I have not had a problem with either of them.

I've had mine for just about one year and all the letters are still clearly visible. What I like the most about this keyboard is that the F and J keys have a good ridge on them and I can feel where my fingers go.

Depends what the lettering is made out of. My guess would be no, unless you tried to peel the paint off the lettering later on. Or the paint might not adhere to the lettering and just peel right off after a little while.

I have used my bag 4 times on long rides (400 to 1050 mile round trips) with no problems. It has not worn the paint at all. Now, I don't leave it on all the time, so I can't speak to every day usage. I would be surprised if you had any problem, but wouldn't be surprised if after years of every day use you noticed some paint degradation.

The letters are finished but they can be painted over... I didn't paint them, but it can be done.

The strips that I have purchased usually have about two years till expiration.

It doesn't appear to be glued I have not had any problems with it in two years

I had no problem with the letters wearing out or fading? Had one for 5 years. This is a good key board & mouse combination in my opinion. This is the 3rd one I have bought.

I use it once a day and have had it for 2 years with no lettering coming off at all. If I scratched it with a nail I'm certain it will come off. Now that I've seen the reviews I'm going to be more careful. That kind of thing bugs me!

Maybe after about 2 months the paint from the keyboard might leave marks on your screen

It all depends on how thick the application ends up. Thin paint-like coats only tend to last 6-15 seconds. Thick strings like letters or filling in cavities will last longer. 1-3 minutes. It shrinks alot while drying, too. So multiple applications may be necessary. No better or worse than other glo-crafts.

These are completely rubbery plastic coated, so as long as that remains intact, should hold up. However, remember that sunlight will break down this coating, and weather conditions and animals and birds will have access to them, so probably only good for a few years if not protected from the outside. On the bright side, they are easily removed and a coating of Rustoleum if they begin to look shabby should take care of the problem plus you can pick your paint color then!

The first Adesso keyboard I had did have some letters wear off. But, you can find adhesive letters to stick over them. I took clear nail polish (matte finish) and painted over the most frequently worn letters and they seem to be holding up just fine. It is worth keeping this keyboard irregardless of the worn letters since I mostly touch-type but as I said, you can find adhesive peel and stick letters to apply to your worn keys. Hope this was helpful.

Ours are two years old and still look great. They are made of a plastic/composite type material that can easily be cleaned to look new.

I've never encountered such a thing, but if you're asking if they'll last you forever then yes. Don't ride in the rain and they will truck on. Paint away Picasso

I got this set about 2yrs ago and it has yet to fade (though I haven't tested it in direct sunlight) and I haven't gotten them wet so I don't know at this point.

Most of mine is covered, BUT, that which is still visible has withstood almost two years of use.

I have had no problems with the lettering coming off. I have only had them for a few weeks but I do not see that being an issue.
