Have the same issue, but can't subscribe to mousepads. I believe that's dust getting in the crevices of the wood.

Or oils from your hand, perhaps?

Once you get oil, dust, or moisture on a surface, dust starts to build up. It's downhill from there. Hard surfaces are easier to keep clean, just don't leave them damp after cleaning, but completely dry and slippery.

The close folding furniture is probably great for holding back dust buildup.
