Went out to stare at the buttons...without taking one off and cutting it in half I can't tell if it's a 2 shot molded keycap or a clear part that's been painted and laser etched (which is the most common process now for backlit keyboards on laptops since it requires no special tooling)



I didn't feel like breaking my car so I didn't pry one off to be sure...but it's hard to tell if it was just a flaw in the molding like Joey suggests or something causing the paint layer to seperate like chemicals or heat.
