Does anyone know what type of paint I should use to mod this keyboard like I only want to paint the metal white on the keyboard

Check with an auto parts store and let them know that you need a paint suitable for aluminum. Make sure you apply an aluminum cleaner and clean it thoroughly before you apply paint. Paint for an aluminum engine block or wheels would work nicely and provide excellent durability on a K65 metal surface.

You can use anodized painting for smooth and lasting painting, but it will be harder than normal painting.

Yes the keyboard is completely gloss except for the keys of course. However I haven't really had any issues with keeping it clean besides the usual dusting every now and again. Although I'm not sure how it would do if something were to stain it, but I haven't had that issue.

It's all or nothingThe software is downloaded from the logitech site and you can choose any shade of color you wantThe keys are not individually colored, it's the whole keyboard and display or nothing, I still find it pretty cool.WASD keys are light gray as are the arrow keys.

Chritine, I really can't answer your questions. Please read what the others have written. I know this is a very nice keyboard, looks nice, I like the white, and you will not be disappointed with it. I Love it too!

I didn't do this myself but a friend did use the magnetic paint under the whiteboard paint and it worked. Make sure you follow the manufacturer instructions and the tips on checking for expiration date.

Just buy a Deck Legend. It's a bit more pricey but you get an absolutely insanely good keyboard and as the box says, "the last keyboard you'll ever own". After owning it for a few months now I could not agree with that boast more.

Well, first I wouldn't buy a white keyboard for extreme use. It will get ugly pretty quick. I have not spilled on it, but I don't think any keyboard that is not marketed as waterproof will hold up too well to spills... especially if it is sticky.

Also, forgot to mention. I received a silver color keyboard when I ordered this part. It was not actual 'bronze'.

Hi David, The background is very glossy. The space bar is black, but not glossy. The keys on my keyboard are covered with a non-glossy black and white letters that I added. The keyboard had no blotches of any kind. It also has a pretty blue light that indicates if the Caps are on. I am happy I purchased this keyboard, I hope things work out for your friend.

I was wondering the same thing. This looks to be a very good keyboard. I may buy it. If I do, I'll be sure to post a review.

I have these stickers and they work well, except I cut up the Dvorak 'U' and 'H' stickers and placed the blue U and H at the top of the key so as to not cover up the little bumps which help you to keep your fingers aligned with the keyboard. I recommend that you do the same, or the bumps will disappear (you'll never realize how much you miss them until they are gone!). Regarding obtaining the stickers, doesn't Amazon ship internationally? I can't imagine the shipping cost from the US to the UK would be that great. Maybe just go for it, eh? I also recommend buying some extra sheets of decals...they are cheap and you never know if you will whiff on placing a sticker or two when you put them on, or if one will peel off in the future. Good luck, and enjoy your stickers! GO DVORAK!

You can change it to any colour you want. The same with the backlit keyboard. Very nice machine this PC.

Yes, and yes. The keys on the keyboard are white and crisp while the surrounding bezel has a metallic slightly silver finish despite being plastic. This gives a crisp and cool feeling as you type. I've been using this keyboard for more than a month, and love everything about it. If you have anymore questions, feel free to ask.

If you have the option get the clear silicone. I ordered clear and a green one the letters and words don't match up on all of the keys on the green one and makes it a bit blurry

Black on black would look the best. I have a white ipad and bought a black case because I did not want to see all of the dirt on a white case and keyboard. It looks fine. You only really see the white front of the ipad when it is open. When closed it appears to be all black.

I just did a search for HP DV7 replacement keyboard and found the color I needed. then went on amazon to order. Hope that help. It worked great the first time.
