Anyone else ever notice the trackpad shows a lit of wear, especially where you mostly use it with your finger tip?

I have not used this new MBP 2019 model much, only had it a month and as you can see from the picture below its showing wear and when I try and rub it off with a micro fibre cloth it just stays the same. Any ideas?

I'm not so sure if that is wear, but just oil from your fingers which a dry micro fibre cloth isn't really going to deal with.

I think Apple recommend a damp lint free cloth, I've cleaned mine with good quality lens wipes and seemed to do the job but I'd say do as Apple say first :)
 
Yup a damp lint free cloth works a treat, I havent had this problem on my new one yet tho.
