how to clean 3dconnexion products as spacemouse or cadmouse

Hello, everyone.

for regular maintenance of spacemouses and 3dconnexion cadmouses it is recommended to clean them only with water or isopropyl alcohol.use of cleaning products or conventional disinfectants could cause abrasion of rubber cover. already sweat, heat and time tend to make such a sticky cover.
at a difficult time like the actual pandemic of covid 19, where it serves to sanitize everything, I suggest not to exaggerate however with the disinfectants that then will be in contact with your skin.
if the surface has already become a little sticky tried with a little glycerin high content cream (cream hands from a few euros) even if you risk to jam everything anyway.

the sticky rubber of certain coatings takes off very well with glaze.
I had several things covering for this, initially, beautiful finish, which then turns into something that only makes sense to look at it.
I have scratched with everything, from nails to straw, used of everything, acetone, alcohol and various solvents, with the result of stacking everything and/or turning the black plastics in satin white penoso.
Then I read on the net of a guy who used the glazing, well, I tried, and in a moment that crappy patina disappeared, without leaving aloni.

with great satisfaction yesterday I made a test on an old spacemouse pro with totally unraveled rubber. I used a soft cloth with a universal degreaser (chanteclair) to remove the big. you have to be very careful not to delete the numbers of the buttons and not to let the liquid in. then I used the glaze (which I discovered to be based on isopropyl alcohol) as finishing. the result: extraordinary. He's back as new! thank you @ Stefanobruno

I with sweat I have "dissolved" (pass the term) both the side rubber and aluminum of the base of the cadmouse 3dconnexion, "resolved" putting of paper tape (the one from whites) on all the side of the mouse, and changed every 3-4 months. that mouse has a fantastic ergonomics, perfect weight, excellent precision, but I must say that we were quite unfortunate, the percentage of the devices on which the keys or the wheel presented flaws after a year of use (intended, of course) was really high, and it is really a shame!

I am sorry and I confirm that you were unlucky because only a lot of the first production had such aesthetic defects. defective products, within the warranty terms, have been replaced. thanks to your feedback, research and new materials, you can say that 3dconnexion now has the situation under control and short...any news...stay tuned...
