I am building a desk with a 2 part epoxy top and would like to do 1 of 2 things. I would like to either sand a mouse pad section into the surface in a designated area or perhaps make a mouse pad using some sort of thin plastic sheet backed with a thin foam/rubber.
Epoxy can be sanded to a vast range of coarseness levels and this method would be pretty nice considering there would not be any raise lip ledges of a mouse pad. I am just not entirely sure I want to go all in on a cloudy square section on the top. Making a hard mat from plastics that would allow such is another idea/option, but I do not know how fine the finish needs to be to get optimal mouse tracking.
Does anyone know around what grit sandpaper to use for solid tracking of mice? I considered testing a few on a piece of acrylic but a range or base starting point would be great.
