I have used it inside the keyboard for sound deadening, and also under the keyboard on the desk to keep it from sliding around.

Solves those "warped" keyboard problems, too, if they aren't more than a couple of mm out of square.

For warped keyboard cases, just hold your keyboard on both sides with your hands, then twist it up or down depends on which way it warps, and it will be flat again.

I got you. Not sure if it will happen though. I think most people will find it too expensive and not worth it.

The board itself doesn't ping but the desk sure as hell does ! It's also a great thing to use with any board that doesn't have the rubber tipped feet as it's super slip resistant

I did the same mod with a fair bit less lead on 3 rosewills. And have just put the cabnet liner in the SS7G that i repaired. I quites bottoming out quite bit and get rid of the ping if there is/was any.
