If you have any old electronics with gooey rubberized coatings, you can usually remove it with isopropyl alcohol (isopropanol). It’s not always a perfect solution, but at least it won’t stick to you anymore. If it saves something from becoming e-waste, that’s a huge win to me.
Here’s my Microsoft IntelliMouse Explorer 2.0 that had gone all gross. In the last few months, I’ve also used it on a Nikon Coolpix camera, a PS Vita ergonomic grip, and an Anker Bluetooth speaker.
