so, I have made 2 mouse pads before, but have never put anything under them to give them a better grip. the one I am using at work likes to slide around now after so much use. use to be decent at staying in place, but now I think its time to upgrade it.

any ideas on what I can add to the bottom that is not to bulky or wont leave a residue?

I buy closed cell rubber sheet 1/16" thick, it is black/charcoal in color.

I use spray can glue. On both the foam and the leather. Cut the foam so it is about 1/8" shy of the mouse pad all the way around.

I apply the foam to the leather immediately after spraying so if I need to adjust it I can move it slightly.

Allow to dry over night. 

Works great.

Is that the same as the stuff you put under rugs that you don’t want sliding around? At menards, Lowe’s and of course Wally World.

Definitely not. I will try to locate my order when I bought the material. Will post when I find it.

 Believe I found it in smaller pieces from other sources.
