Discolored Trackball
yaksplat:
I saw something before that people were using to clean discolored legos. That may work as well. Try searching down that route.

Retr0bright maybe?

Seems peroxide and oxi-clean are the preferred substances.

On most hard plastics the discolouration will polish out with a metal polish and a rag. Test a spot with a rag and some, don't laugh, toothpaste.
