3 coats of Rustoleum metallic blue something or other with 2 coats of some old clearcoat I found in my garage

Yea i know, but whats the fun in buying a pre-painted mouse when I can paint my own? Its like buying a pre-mod case vs. modding your own

how does the paint hold up to use? does it make the mouse sticky to the touch after lond periods of use?

I painted it last night, so I dont know about long periods... but the clear coat is nice and smooth and feels good in my hand

I used to have that same 3dfx 3m Precise Mousing Surface... Did me well for many, many years - Did you get that with a Voodoo3 3000?

I've never seen any others, much less anyone who still uses it... Neat!

does the clear coat you put on help prevent scratches and such?
