Ok so this is gonna sound like I'm a super cheapass or something for wanting to resurface a 10 dollar mousepad but It's not like that at all.

My mousepad that is now a year or so old has lost some of its super slipperyness and I want to resurface it without damaging it. Normally I would just pick up a new mousepad and be done with it but I converted this one into a charger for my mx700 awhile back and its sorta attached the base charger. I could cut the wire and create a new one but that seems like alot more work than resurfacing does. I've tried waxing the thing but it just doesnt last very long. Has anyone ever resurfaced a mouse pad with any kind of success?
 
All my mouse pads are cloth-based. You could get some quality contact cement and glue a nice fine thread cloth to the top...
 
This is not the kind of mousepad that is cloth based, Its a plastic material with a surface to it that over time can rub down and become less slippery. I was just curious if anyone has ever resurfaced one before. Its most likely not possible but I figured it was worth a shot.
