Stand-in captain Mark Ramprakash scored his 74th first-class century to secure maximum bonus points for Surrey in a rain-hit draw with Sussex at The oval.
Ramprakash (152) took his time to reach three figures in 299 mins off 227 balls, sharing stand of 122 with Jon Batty (70) and 113 with Ali Brown.
Brown upped the pace with a 72-ball unbeaten 74 to secure the fifth first-innings point at the 400 mark.
James Kirtley bowled 31 miserly overs for 65 but could not break through.
In his 358th first-class appearance, former Middlesex batsman Ramprakash, 35, became the first man ever to captain both London sides.
The weather had caused six hours of play to be lost on the second and third days in south London.
