I put mine on a generic one (foam on bottom with a plastic/paper type top)
In retrospect I think it would have been better on hard plastic with rubber feet on the bottom.

I can't wait to get my hand on this mat.
I have one question though. It was mentioned that this mat could be cut to fit an everglide giganta. I really, really hope this is an option at release, because that is the pad I am using.
I have my new Razer Boomslang shipping on Nov. 1, and I would love to get one of these mats as soon as possible

Their "store".
Coming Soon!! C4 ("Explosive" Speed) Mousemat. With Sticky- back & peel-off liner. Cover your mousing surface with Super Slick & Super Fast C4.
Large 16" x 16"
Copper color
Item Name: C4 "Explosive" Speed Mousemat w/Sticky-back, Large.
Item Number: C4-Large 16X16
Price: Coming Soon!!
That should do it, the medium one is the exact size of the ratpad, btw.
Giganta:
9 1/2" High
11 1/2" Wide
1/4" Deep
So it looks like the Giganta and Ratpad have the same dimensions, everglide is just cut a little differently at the bottom, so medium should work just fine for giganta's
I prefer to stick with my XTrax products as I haven't had anything that compares near the same and ya can't beat the price.

Additional comments: First I would like to say I really enjoy this mouse surface and think the texturing is just right. The texture provides enough feedback to judge mouse travel and is not too rough to become abrasive or distracting. I have had no issues with the optical mouse tracking incorrectly on this surface. The smoothness of the surface greatly helps in first person shooting games as well as AliasWavefront's Maya and Adobe Photoshop as well. The mouse accelerates well and is very smooth on this surface which helps a lot with small movements in graphics programs. The color isn't bad, but a gun metal grey color or clear would be even more appealing in my opinion. The only problems I had with this surface were during installation. When I was peeling the backing off it became creased and I was unable to get the crease out as I was attaching the C4 surface to the mousepad. The crease was difficult to smooth out of the C4 surface and it is still there in a few places. I think a less rigid material for the backing the surface ships with would probably help this issue. Another issue I had was the mousepad's size was 8" by 9 1/2", so I had a half inch where the original mousepad stuck out from under the C4 surface (which was 8" by 9"). It wasn't a huge problem, but maybe a couple different cuts that reflect generic mouse pad sizes would be more helpful and make installation easier, or a larger size that could be cut down would also be an improvement. Rounded corners precut would also be a nice finishing touch, but not necessary. Overall I really enjoy this surface and would be interested in purchasing a larger size
Looking foirwad to giving this stuff a try. I have noticed that alot of people mention the creasing, have you guys addressed that at all? Would a slightly thicker sheet help with that maybe?

Had to break out the super glue last night since the pad did exactly what I thought it would and started peeling off my cloth Mouse pad.......If it was a hard surfice it may have stayed longer but not much. The superglue should hold it down for eternity however 
Again nice mouse pad just needs something more permanent to abhere to.

Then I realized that the feet of my mouse were worn out and so that the mouse was so "low" that the edges were dragging along the mousepad as well. I fixed this using the 15-3S teflon tape I got from CS-Hyde in my first purchase from them. I taped the edges of my mouse with the teflon tape and it's been gliding smoothly since. Its like butter.

Additional comments:
The product is very nice, the only issue I have is the
size of the pad. It is not large enough to completely fit over my mouse pad
and the teflon mouse discs that I started out with on the beta test had
become damaged and ended up causing more friction instead of reducing it.
After I removed the mouse discs and put on the teflon tape I purchased from
your store. The teflon tape+C4 combo is once again very nice to use.
Therefore my suggestion would be to increase the size of
C4 material that is being sold and if you could include atleast 6 mouse
discs (since my mouse has 5 locations of contact with the mousepad). I
believe that it should cover most mice that are out on the market that way
and include a possible 1-2 extra mouse disc.
note: it's only one dimension that was incompatible with my mousepad, the
longer section was actually short by approximately 1 to 3/4 of an inch.
note 2: after looking at your website I see your other kit included 8 mouse
feet, that would alter my suggestion on number of mouse discs to be 10-12
for one set to use and one set to replace and having 0-2 spares (if
considering the mx700 mouse that I used)
