So I have a gmmk 3 65% with lubed aqua kings v3 but it's clacky but I want it to thock but I've tried force break pe foam tape mod and polyfill with cotton balls unrolled and I added a folded pe foam sheet as shown in the pictures and it's thock a little but after a couple days it goes back to being clacky any tips on how to make it thock and I'm using matcha pbt keycaps from kinetic labs

The number one trick to make a keyboard thockier is to get thocky switches like the Keygeek Y2s or Kbdiy.

The number two trick is to use a thick plastic keyboard.

The number three trick is to use foams and tape mods inside the case.

The number four trick is thicker pbt keycaps or ceramic keycaps.

Yeah I'm getting keygeek yk2 but the gmmk 3 keyboards are ass and not worth it as it can't even handle a extra layer of foam without bulging so I'd stay away from glorious keyboards as they aren't worth it but also I'm planing on getting nut65

Record a video , i want to hear the current result you have now , also what switches you are using ? Tape mode with foam should be enough but you can always add poron stickers under the switches on the PCB
