Maybe consider upgrading your keycaps to something that actually fits and isn't a clone.

I've just checked the video for these. They have that LED that goes through the switch. I'm almost certain that can only be attached via soldering so you can't actually remove the switches to lube them. (desoldering isn't worth it imo)

most mainstream retail keyboards will have soldered switches unless it's advertised as hot-swappable.

Not many people are willing to shell out 140$ for an original GMK set. People are even surprised I spent 50$ on some keycaps. I myself have never owned a GMK set. for one, I don't like the ABS material in terms of texture and feel. I prefer PBT. two, it's expensive and because it's ABS, it will eventually lose its texture shine from usage. 3, it's limited and its production takes 1-2 years before you actually get it.

I get where you are coming from. I actually had the exact same thoughts as you.

But after getting a gmk set, I like it way more than any pbt set I have ever owned. The texture of gmk is way better than any pbt set imo.

The shine on the keycaps is preference. But seeing some sets with full shine honestly looks really good.

Tip: don't buy pre built boards if you want to tune them
