Can this desk pad be used on a high sheen, lacquered surface?

I see no reason why not.It doesn't slide around on my desk at all and I don't think the sheen would make a difference.

I'm using the Robbins desk pad on top of a glass top Pottery Barn desk. It not only protects the glass but it has allowed me to put family photo under the pad. This has made for a very cool looking desk. Hope this answers your question.

Not sure. I don't think it will "stick" to the lacquer ruining the finish. If you're really afraid of damaging the finish...or if the desk is valuable, I would go with having glass cut to fit the surface of the desk, rounding the corners and having it beveled to be absolutely certain of no damage to the desk.

I would think so..as long as it is a smooth finish.the sheen shouldn't matter as much as it being a smooth surface.

Yes, that is what I use it on. I wish it was slightly more sticky, as it does slide a bit but overall happy with it.

Yes it will work. It is adjustable in length and height. However, the pad will be slightly above your desk.

I would think you could, but you should try it in an inconspicuous spot. You may not like the glossy appearance.

I used it to reproduce some graphics on my bike, I'd say the wood would have be sealed and or painted to give it a good surface to stick to. But I really don't know if this would be the right stuff for a desk.

I have only used it on tile and linoleum, so I cannot say. Sorry. It is great on those surfaces. It will depend on the wood treatment--varnishm poly, etc.

you can but as a planner and decorator, I do not suggest it. If your using a flat plan table cloth surface, then yes, otherwise if using texture cloth or decor then no.

Thank you, but what about just the desk portion (floor to desk)? I appreciate the help. :)

I am unsure what you mean by "surface pad". However, I have owned and used mine for over 2 years without an operational problem. If you are referring to the surface the unit sits on, I have had it on both bare desk top surface and a cushioning pad. I have had no problem with either. Though, because of its low profile, the tray may "hang up" upon opening/closing if it extends beyond a matted surface. Hope this answers your question.

Yes, but the tier resting on your desk is dimensionally smaller than the top tier. Hope this helps.

I think so. Just make sure the desk has a lip in the back where the arm can clamp on to.

Probably not well. The top of my desk is glass and I did try it -- it needed more friction as the roller couldn't grip. As for carpet, shorter types might work, but I'd stay away from longer versions.

No, not unless the vinyl was exceptionally flat and the seams are very tight. The pad is smooth and stiff. It will not reach into texturing. It is also somewhat delicate, and rough surfaces or edges will wear it out quickly.

It does have a smooth surface but I wouldn't recommend it for a desk. It is sturdy enough but I don't think it is wide enough.

Maybe, if you have a small computer or place the mouse pad in front of the computer. The surface of the desk measures approximately 19"L x 17.5"W, narrowing to 14.75" at the top.

I use mine on a glass table ("Studio Designs 13220") that I covered with an Alvin Translucent Cutting Mat. I had to be a little creative with the installation, because the instructions have you drill down into what would have been glass. I made it work by putting the cable holders vertically along the front and back of the metal desk frame, attaching them with pop rivets. It works great.

yes, but its not worth buying, you can't use it on any surface that's the least bit glossy.

Dunno. I use a vinyl desk pad. So I can't answer your question. But FWIW, I I can tell you that I love this desk, and for me the desk is one of the three most important pieces of fun urniture in my house. Solid, good looking, good drawer space, and, if it's important to you, very easy to assemble.
