wp34s: apply key overlay using watercolor paintbrush - eri - 01-14-2014 06:15 PM
I used a thin cheap kids watercolor paintbrush to apply the keyboard overlay and key stickers to the wp34s.
Much better than a q-tip as it allows fine control of the pressure you apply, it easily fits between the keys and cotton fibers from the q-tip won't stick to the adhesive under the overlay.
Hope this helps.

You get a gold star for perfectionism!
I have three of the calcs (was four until that one croaked from some mystery mechanical problem), and I have rather rashly applied the overlays and key covers with my clumsy fingers. I do, however, purchase at least one or two extra overlays in case of a malfunction. So far haven't needed them and I have results that work for me.
