sticky remains of an old rubber band
I have a mouse pad that was in a box for years, during which time a rubber band on top of it had time to turn into hard bits that stuck to it. Any suggestions? I could pick most of it off, but not enough.

Some isopropyl alcohol would probably do the trick. If that doesn't work you might try something like Goo Gone if you can determine that it won't damage the mousepad.
If those don't work maybe try bestine.
Tried a little isopropyl alcohol, and it doesn’t seem to have any effect. I’ll consider getting some goo gone.
Thanks!
Is it a hard plastic mouse pad or a soft fabric mouse pad
Fabric on foamy rubbery backing. It’s about 30 years old, if that suggests a certain style.
