I think you are looking for this:
paper-item:focus::before, paper-item:focus::after { color: white; opacity: 0; }
This rule cancels the rules from "bower_components / paper-item / paper-item-shared-styles.html":
:host(:focus):before, .paper-item:focus:before { @apply(--layout-fit); background: currentColor; content: ''; opacity: var(--dark-divider-opacity); pointer-events: none; @apply(--paper-item-focused-before); }
I don’t know where to import the rule on "paper-item: focus :: after", but in my Chrome Developer console I see this and I need to redefine it to get the desired behavior.
