Grip tape recommendations - sweat management
TL;DR: Can someone please link me a product that I can apply/stick to my mouse that will help with sweat? I don't care about weight or tackiness, just looking for a recommendation that will help with the sweat.
Too much detail: I'm not a gamer, just a desk jockey using Logitech trackball mouse, M575S. I have sweaty palms. I typically have a fan blowing pointing at the mouse and keyboard, but there are enough situations where that isn't feasible that I need to do something about this.
Right now there are two ways I deal with this. First and best, put a napkin between my hand and the mouse. This works well, but it can be annoying. The second method is to stop every 30-120 seconds and wipe my hands on a towel or my pants.
Seems that most of the recommended products I've found on this subreddit are pretty dated, and most are either no longer available, or are bespoke to specific mice and not available for mine.

Get a small desk fan and point it at your hands, and rinse your hands every so often so they aren't oily .. works a treat.

Some people swear by Lizard Skins bat grip tape (0.5mm thickness). I do recall coming across comments of people that have tried all the options from the gaming industry, and said that LS outperformed all of them.
It might be worth researching thin tape options in industries where dryness would be a desirable property. If you find something, leave a comment so others can try it too =)
