I had always issue, even one time my hand sweat and there are created spots on bottom of mouse and it has terrible friction. I can tell even, after one use !!! After 2 weeks mouse is useless... And i follow all maintenace rules:
1. don't touch it with dirty hands
2. cover that at night
3. clean it with microfiber cloth
4. don't use water

It doesn't matter, there is insane friction. I am better on garbage office mouse for 3$...

I heard about polishing, while it helps a bit, i am not skilled with my hands, i doubt i will be able to apply same pressure all time. Also i even asked on chemical forums and didn't advice anything. Biggest problem is spots are created from sweat, which cause huge friction, i tried isopropyl alcohol everything nothing worked...

What mouse & mousepad do you have?
When it comes to mousepad - all hardpads will have less friction (than soft-mat like Goliathus), and it will be easier for you to clean it.

Some people use baby powder for their sweaty hands, but you can actually buy some specific for blocking hand sweating.

In snooker a company created "snooker gloves", for anyone with sweaty hands to not cause friction on pool cues.
Don't think there is a glove for pc gamers, because hand sweat is just natural cause.

I think somewhat it will be helpful
