I am glad you got it working again, and thank you for warning me about the state of your mouse, I will bring some disposable gloves if I need to use it
How about you let that bad boy soak in some IPA for a couple of days? xD
Instructions unclear, soaked in India Pale Ale and now it's even stickier
On the plus side you have now made a Mouse IPA. Really brings out the hoppy flavour.
Taking something apart to fix it and not also cleaning it is a handiwork sin
That would probably dissolve some of the plastic parts.
Mouse: someone kill me
It's just paint. I guess if OP cared, they could sand it off and spray it with an even coat to make it pretty.
I'm gonna go out on a limb and guess that this mouse broke because of the 3+ layers of definitely-not-paint that I can see in this pic
I don't think that's paint wear. It looks more like grime buildup to me
It’s paint wear. The grime was cleaned off.
sees title

Great follow up, nice to see it’s working again!
Nice! I used a Logitech MX518 for around 12 years before I finally decided it was too grody to continue using. I heard they released a MX518 homage mouse a few years ago, and I'm thinking about getting one. They were the perfect mice.
