keycaps material

hi i wondered what is the best material for keycaps to paint on them in terms of longevity (i means the keycaps where the custom paint last the longer on) since i'm hesitating between either a full ceramic keycaps or an aluminium but i don't know if paint last long on them and if there is a material where paint last the longest

Custom Color Shine through caps

Good morning,

I've sent emails to several custom keycap websites but haven't heard back.

I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction. I'm building a keyboard for my dad for Christmas, and I'm trying to locate someone to make custom colors shine through keycaps.

Full Layout for the following colors: #981E32 for crimson and #5E6A71 for gray.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Icon SVGs

Anyone know where to get the icon SVGs that are used on most gmk sets? I’m specifically looking for the basic modifiers (tab, caps, shift, backspace, enter) along with the arrow keys and vertical enter (ISO/num enter)

Suitable moulds?

I'm new here, but i haven't found this asked before. My wife makes scagliola for a living, it's a kind of ornamental plasterwork that mimics marble. She wanted to make a set of keycaps for fun, so I was wondering whether there are any moulds that you guys could recommend
