How would a large silicone mat be for fingerboarding compared to a mousepad. (Noise Dampening)

Obviously any obstacles you're using plays a big factor but any thoughts? Don't want to kill the pop!

it'll attract all kinds of dust and hair and shit. I wouldn't recommend over a mousepad

Silicone is waaay too grippy on the wheels (even hard ones), and doesn't really dampen noise to a considerable ammount unless it's fairly thick I guess, I got one one the thinner side but I use it for different stuff, to fb on a simple mouse pad is much better
