How To Properly Install Mouse Feet (Corepads, Tiger Arc 1s, 2s, Ice, Hyperglides) on Any Mouse

I often see people having LOD (Lift Off Distance) issues after installing aftermarket mouse feet on their mouse of choice, and this is usually why. Also, I'm really sorry if my hand blocked any of the footage, and I'm also sorry for my nasty looking deskpad that really doesn't look that bad off camera, the camera truly picks up every detail!

One very important thing I forgot to point out, the sensor ring has the black adhesive around it too! I removed it off camera and forgot to mention it. Once you get the sensor ring up, you’ll see 6 small dots similar to screw holes. This is very easy to miss and I originally did in the video myself, so make sure you see the 6 small holes before putting the sensor ring on. It’s a pain to remove, so remember to be patient and gentle, and not to point tweezers towards the sensor if you’re using them. :D

Yo u gave me a lil heartattack when i took it off bc i thought i did something wrong 😂

this was very helpful. thank you so much, for years i have just been putting new mouse feet on top of my old ones. you are the first person that actually explained how it should be done correctly. thank you!

[@blxzing1201]

IMPORTANT note: The second layer of adhesive on the top skate is also present on the circular sensor skate. Make sure you take off the second layer of adhesive around the sensor too or your skates will be uneven.

Thanks for the tip on the black foam adhesive! Although I messed up one of my corepad sets taking them off, my mouse feels so much better now.

[@liquidluck5689]

Thank you for the heads up on the extra adhesive. The product i bought had two sets of skates so I re-installed. PHEW!

The Second Layer thing is very helpful thank you! I just removed them to maintenance my mouse, and had to learn about that the hard way.

Great tutorial, precise and straightforward

[@TheWMq8]

YOU Saved MY LIFE. I installed them and then immediately checked your video and found out that i forgot to remove the old black layers! Removed the new ones carefully, removed the old black layers and then reinstalled the new ones

This tutorial helped so much, I watched another that didn't say anything about the ptfe puck and I couldn't tell if I had to take the black adhesive off that as well, so thank you!!

Well done, good instructions i followed your steps and they are installed perfectly 💯

[@ChessBoxin]

Aw this helped. I had played valorant with the Ice feet on the black adhesive for 1-2hrs and I was like this feels off... but maybe its a placebo. THen i found this video and posted on MouseReview to confirm that I had put on the feet wrong. They do feel solid and more flat now. The middle part is unfortunately kind of scratchy cause of being uneven. Thanks for the video.

[@dsandoval9396]

A few tips... If there's sticky adhesive that won't come off, or comes off too slow, mineral spirits is way better to use. It'll turn hard to remove adhesive into easy to remove gel in a few seconds when left on (as in don't apply and immediately wipe off). THEN use alcohol to wipe off clean. One more tip. it's a good idea to keep a bottle of 99% Isopropyl Alcohol (IPA) around, it removes residue better and has less water which means it evaporates with less residue left behind. Comes in handy for many things electronic. I dropped my phone in water, completely submerged, (removed batt.) and immediately put it in container with 99%IPA (so phone was completely covered) and the IPA replaces the water. I put my phone up right for a minute to drain IPA and then flat in a warm place. This way I didn't have to worry about mist/condensation between the screens that you can't get to as it was the 99% IPA and evaporated without leaving water spots on the inside of the screen.

[@themouselady275]

Thanks for the tips. I just used the alcohol pad that came with the feet, but I’ll try 99% next time.

[@Faithfps]

Spilled soda in my PC one time, 99% Isopropyl Alcohol saved me from having to buy a new GPU and motherboard. It completely saved the motherboard, however GPU was dead. Good thing was I was able to clean out my GPU well enough that they RMA'd it and replaced it because they couldn't tell there was liquid damage whiich is not covered in RMA's.

[@zares_fnx]

It's also worth to mention that salts and minerals from water is what conduct electricity the most, and if the residue is there, it might still break electronics. So besides soaking in IPA, it's good to actually flush out as much as you can. If you don't have IPA, you can do it with demineralized water, I saved my keyboard with it. Years later, it's still working perfectly.

[@Faithfps]

I didn't either and couldn't figure out why I was getting tracking issues as I just got an artisan mousepad as well so I thought it was a problem with the sensor reading the pad. After a short google and 1 set of core pads lost I figured it out and tracking is now perfect.

[@jimjamalamadingdong]

Thank you so much :)

[@MyRageIsOP]

What I would really like to know is what type of glue can I use for my new mouse feet in case I need it? The thing is that I bought new sets of Tiger Glides Ice both for my RVU and GPxSL and the biggest compliant on the reviews is that sometimes 1 or even two of the set have no glue layer on them. I haven't checked mine out yet, so I'm curious about what is the best type of glue to use in order to be able to swap these feet too when I have to without too much of a trouble because I don't really want to bother with sending the feet back in this case.

[@kantegir]

It would be way easier to pull stock glides off by using a hairdryer for a minute (not at full heat ofc) since glue would warm up and liquefy a little, thus having less resistance towards physical action. Also about why you need to use wipes, most adhesives need defatted surface in order to stick to it, be it wood, plastic or any other material, and alcohol does exactly this, not only disinfecting surface, but also making it dry/defatted.

[@twitch_nevish]

What if I put new arc 2 on my gpx and I noticed one side of the top foot is higher than the other (just a little). Is it going to be bad for my sensor?

[@jackjorge4082]

I only saw your video after pasting the mouse feets without removing the second black layer. What do I do? I remove the new mouse feets and try to remove the second layer and paste again or do I leave it anyway?

[@themouselady275]

Take the feet off and remove the black layer otherwise you’ll have lift off distance issues

[@lokey2544]

What if you don’t like the pads that you get and wanna go back to the stock feet?

[@barrettolson6789]

Thanks

[@Street_Fighter_]

Hi, why don't you use the extra round slider? I had stock glides and i dont know if is better to use the extra supplement.

[@themouselady275]

Cuz for me it doesn’t make any difference whatsoever In glide and the puck doesn’t actually make contact with the pad :) and I prefer to make the mouse as light as possible without doing a weight reduction. It’s all preference tho, so if you wanna use it, go for it :)

[@faytelan]

Stupid question but if you put the glide pad on the puck, will that affect charging? I have the powerplay pad as well so just wondering if anyone has done this before

Hello! I just got sent some corepads v2 for the superlight and mine didn't come with any alcohol wipes. Don't know if that is normal or if I misinterpreted what you said in the video.

You’d have issues and the mouse would be uneven in the back. Would likely cause LOD issues as well.
