I used the wrong lube, it was a high viscosity silicone lubricant for mechanical parts... It was a pain to get rid of it
The switches were all sticky and the dome could hardly press the stem back.
Currently I have not that much time for keyboards but I will try this again with Krytox asap.

Hehe, I will start to throw the keyboard around and sell it as super rare vintage keyboard!
With that money I can get myself 2 brand new Pro2s :D

I planed to repaint the whole keyboard but I am hesitating a lot lately, becasue the yellowed look is like a nice patina.
It showes that the thing has done a lot of work... It gives it some kind of "elitist" look. Maybe I will change my mind again, time will show. It is my daily driver at work now and I am verry satisfyed with it.
i'm pretty fond of my yellowing pro1 as well!

we are the champions my friend :maverick:
(actually, the real pro1 champion is probably hasu!!)> :maverick:
