RatPadz Skin

PolyGFX can even skin your fridge so it's no surprise if they have one for your mousepad! The mousepad skins are pre-cut for the the ultra-slick Ratpadz or you can order it uncut for your own choice of pad. Now you would be worried what the skin would do the the ultra-slick surface of the pad, wouldn't you? Well, the mousepad skin had been designed with a textured feel for accurate mousing and fragging! Anyway, my aging Ratpadz could do with a facelift too after the years of abuse! :O) Sorry Kyle!

It doesn't have the micro air channels underneath it but it applies and removes easily as well. I chose the same Fusion 18 Design as with the caseskin so that the two match. Installation was straight forward... peel off one side of the skin (doesn't matter which side you wanna start with) and stick it on the mousepad. Check the alignment and then proceed on to apply it to the whole pad. Since it doesn't have the micro air channels, I strongly advice you to use the squeegee to press out any air bubbles. Work your way till the skin covers your whole mousepad. The skin will extend a little out of the Ratpadz so use the squeegee again to press it over the sides.

Now you have a matching case and mousepad! If you're looking into matching anything and everything in your rig, check out the Mod Skins Section on PolyGFX's Site! The mousepad skin surface really works out great for everyday use and it handles gaming like a charm too!

Conclusion

PolyGFX brought to the modding table an easy way for you to have awesome graphics on your case without all the hassles and the cost of airbrushing. And now with the new EZ Apply Material, it's even easier to apply the skin on the case. The Micro Air-Channels helps to allow air to pass thru, preventing air bubbles from forming under the case skin. This also eliminates the need for the squeegee during installation, except in difficult areas like rivets and case handles. The digital graphics printouts are clear and crisp and there's tons of design to choose from. And now PolyGFX also accepts custom art work if you have a particular design you want on your case. What more can I say that I haven't said in my first look at the caseskin from PolyGFX? Oh yeah, did I mention that the skin now costs only US$49.99? Well, I have now! Heheh! Grab one for your beige box today!

Thanks to Garry from PolyGFX for working with us again on this review and thanks to you too for reading! Over and out!
