HOW TO CLEAN YOUR GLASS MOUSEPAD

Mousepads are an essential part of any setup—whether you’re a gamer, creator, or just someone who values smooth, precise control. But not all mousepads are equally easy to keep clean.

If you’ve been using a fabric mousepad, you know the drill: dust, sweat, and stains slowly build up, affecting both look and performance.

Unlike fabric pads, glass mousepads don’t absorb liquid or sweat, don’t warp over time, and keep their surface smooth for years. Spilled your drink? No problem—just wipe it off. No soaking, no scrubbing, no waiting hours for it to dry.

Glass also resists embedded dirt and grime, so you don’t have to worry about permanent stains or the pad losing its glide over time.

Not all glass mousepads are the same. Clustrs glass mousepads are built with a special AF (anti-fingerprint) coating, making them even easier to clean than standard glass. This coating helps prevent visible smudges, resists oil build-up, and keeps sweat from sticking—ideal for long gaming marathons or creative sessions.

We recommend giving your mousepad a quick wipe before each gaming or work session using the high-absorbency microfiber cloth included with every Clustrs pad.

Because as a glass surface, fine dust can settle on it overnight. If left, dust can slightly increase sliding noise, affect glide smoothness, and even shorten your mouse feet’s lifespan.

A simple wipe removes dust instantly and keeps your mouse moving like it’s on day one.

Use the included microfiber cloth to gently wipe the surface before use.

For fingerprints or heavier smudges, slightly dampen the cloth with water and wipe.

Avoid harsh chemical cleaners—they’re unnecessary thanks to the AF coating.

Store your mousepad in a clean, dry space when not in use to prevent dust buildup.

Whether you’re grinding FPS ranks, editing high-res artwork, or just need a reliable everyday mousepad, keeping it clean ensures you get the same smooth, precise feel every time. With a glass mousepad—especially one designed with AF coating—maintenance takes seconds, and the payoff lasts for years.

• Can I clean my glass mousepad with alcohol?

We don’t recommend using high-concentration alcohol for cleaning—it’s unnecessary thanks to the AF coating and may reduce its long-term effectiveness. For fingerprints or light smudges, a damp microfiber cloth or a soft wet wipe is more than enough.

• How often should I clean my mousepad?

For the best glide and quietest performance, wipe it daily before use. Even quick dust removal keeps your mouse feet in better condition and maintains a smooth, consistent feel.
