The image doesn't show the fingernail scrape technique on the wheels that the ball drives. That cotton swap isn't going to get that off you need some elbow grease and a fingernail!
Satisfying and gross at the same time.
Actually using a standard cheap mouse on a desk without a mousepad will generate the same crap along the pads, it doesn't come off so crisply but reminds me of this every time.
Any fingernail?
Preferably a toenail.
