The quietest keyboard is the one that displays the Keys with a laser, so If it displays the Keys on your bed it will be close to unbeatable in being quiet

The O-rings are literally OP at noise cancelling. You could skip the spray lubing and foam and just stick some O-rings in the switches and it would be quiet af! :-|

Remember that they also reduce travel and make them feel like you're missing out on the feeling of hitting the bottom...

WD40 as lubricant, especially for plastics, is not a good idea. The solvents in it will disintegrate many plastics over time -- crazing, cracking and discoloring them.

[@richardbottom9843]

That wasnt the og wd40 though, iirc the yellow cap one is lithium based

[@SaintsPurgatory]

Dumbass thinks someone would use petroleum based wd 40 on a keyboard.

[@ExperiMentalDon]

Yup. It's a common misconception that WD-40 can be used for stuff like this. WD-40 is, in fact, _not_ a lubricant, and will destroy stuff like this.
