A wire keycap pulled should work fine for the keyboard.

I second minibois and would go with wire pullers, if you're absolutely intent on purchasing a keycap puller.

Keycap Pullers: Keycap pullers lock their loops/prongs around a keycap and remove them with a pull. They most commonly come in wire puller and plastic ring variants. Wire pullers are highly recommended over plastic pullers, as the latter is more prone to leaving unsightly marks on keycaps in the removal process.

• DIY Paper Clip Keycap Pullers: A low-cost, ghetto, but perfectly functional solution. Possibly better than plastic ring pullers.

They're sorta optional, though. A pair of paperclips or twist ties are a flimsy, but low-cost, functional, non-damaging alternative. See below for pictures?
