removing old keytops

[Marcel Carey]

Avery,

Yes it does. Remember that steam is just controlled heat. It will heat
to precisely 212 degrees F. Just enough to soften the glue. True
enough it will take a little more time for plastic keytops because
they are usually thicker and therefore it takes more time for the heat
to get to the glue.
