Introduction
Go to step 1 ↓Often times with many keyboards, especially this one, certain keys may experience a lag, or may just not register at all.

In this guide, we will be going through a detailed step-by-step process on how to replace a Wooting 60HE keycap.
Wear gloves at all times during this replacement to help prevent the oils from your skin coming into contact with the keyboard's lubricant.
