Filco is plate mounted by default, in other words, there's already metal plate.

As for cleaning, removing the keycaps (all preferably, if you not confident with large modifier keys like Enter, spacebar and so on, leave them untouched). Turn the keyboard upside down on your lap then start shaking/slapping it. Then use tiny brush or air blower to blow off the remaining dusts/dandruff/pieces of food. That should be clean enough but if you are despo, get a cloth and alchohol then start wiping them before reinstall everything.

nah just removing keycaps is enough. then just clean the backplate while it's still attached to the switches.

i'm not confident enough i could fully dissasemble/reassemble  sweat.gif

i see i see, means its just like the normal way of cleaning ? i think removing the backplate is such a complicated way to do it xD

Yeah, dont need remove backplate for no reason.

And FYI, backplate cant be removed without desolder every single switches of the keyboard first, it is only mean to be removed when you are doing a total overhaul.

erm, i really don't recommend u to wash your backplate without desoldering the switches and separating the pcb.
unless there's oil or food or "sticky substance" stuck to your plate, then you should consider doing cleaning to your backplate.
one way you can do this is by using Q-tip cotton swabs dipped with cleaning solution (not too much) and gently rub it on the area you wish to clean.
it might be tedious, but it's less tedious compared to desoldering all the switches.

if it's just dust and hair, using brush to brush them off is good enough.

hi guys, would like to ask is there a high failure rate for LED on mkb? Will the LEDs eventually be dead after a few years or can some last for a very long time? Newbie here would like to try using mkb

LED lifespans are mostly random.
There's always risk of LED dying on LED Keyboards, this you can't avoid.

Current LED dying Kings:
a.) Corsair K70
b.) CM Storm Rapid-i
