Hey everyone,

If you use one of those red laser mouses and have a THICK layer of black junk stuck to the bottom of your mouse -- so thick that the friction becomes annoying then I found the best way of removing it.

With a q-tip spray it with windex and rub it like crazy. That should do it. I can now move my mouse twice as fast.

That junk on the bottom of the mouse should be used to for space technology for the brake calibers or something...

hehe I think it is pretty funny, in the beginning when these wacoms and other mouse boards and stuff came out on the market they said, - you never have to clean a mouse again.
hehe, as it is now I still have to clean my wacom mouse too because of all the plastic getting stuck under the mouse on the plastic dots ...hehe crazy.

I've never had to clean any of that stuff. :)

I use a HIGH PRECISION PLASTIC ARTIST SURFACE!!!!!!!!!!

doesn't that sound cool?

actually, it's just some lame piece of plastic with a grid on it. but it stays clean as fuck.

As for the wacom the most I've had to do to it was wipe off the surface from leaving it on the floor for months and months when I decided I wanted to be a musician becuase I failed as a graphical artist. \m/

I use teflon tape on the bottom of my mouse to reduce friction. Also, there's no such thing as a laser mouse. The red light you see is from an LED. The LED illuminates the mousing surface so that a high-frame-rate image sensor can see it better (since very little natural light makes it underneath a mouse).
