Hello everyone, My M14x R1 (2011) has been my solid performer for over 4 years now. But recently the palm-rest started to be very sticky and is now attracting a lot of dust and dirt. I have only used spirit swabs and normal wet tissue, to try and clean the stickiness off. But it still pertains. Could anyone suggest how i may clean the palm-rest or any specific cleaning agent i could use. My only other solution is to get a decal or skin to cover the palmrest. But i am unable to find exact decals n skins that match the R1. I could find R2 and R3 decals but not entirely sure if they would be the same cut as the R1. Hoping to get some help and thanks in advance.

Bought the 850 Pro 256GB for my M14x R1 and it works like a charm. But haven't bench-marked it to verify the speeds but I have flashed the SATA fix A08 bios and boot up takes less than 20 seconds. Pretty happy with it.
