it will have to depends on what type of PBT that you're going to purchase, if you're getting the IMSTO THICK PBT, i don't really think alot of light will goes thru the keycap itself.(the thicker the keycap, the lesser the light source will pass thru)
White or Rainbow is more possible if it compares to Black for the light source to pass thru the keycap. As they are more brighter in color.
I personally don't recommend black if you're doing this setup, due to the fact that, when you're using black ABS/PBT, and light source to pass thru, you will notice there's a cross that support stem.(it looks ugly to me)
i think China Taobao do sell those keycap that can let light source pass thru, but as for IMSTO Thick PBT, you will have to ask users here that already own those keycap to test it before you're going to purchase.
I see, I just scare like as you say the light shine through the black PBT and see the support stem cross, for me white is ok, but black I need to cover all the light just glow from below.
Is hard to see the shine through effect for Black PBT image, mostly they show is underglow but didn't mention is thick or normal black PBT.

Thank you Cyclonechuah, I keep continue check for that.
