There's a gross ring of dirt around the edge of the home button on my otherwise shiny white iPhone.

What's the best way of cleaning that out?
I tried a pushpin edge but even it seemed to be too thick.

Any suggestions?

I use Invisible Glass Auto wipes. They're pretty good at cleaning just about anything IMO.

Rubbing alcohol + cotton swab. Just barely dip the cotton swab in isopropyl alcohol, depress the button, and swab around the edges.
