Please only do this if your mouse is so bad you are going to buy a new one. Be very careful applying the oil. I would only deposit a little droplet of oil at a time and test as you go.
This also fixed my middle mouse button and I'm not sure why.
I used tri-flow (teflon based lubricant, mostly volatile, with precise applicator) and 99.9% isopropyl alcohol. The oil dissolves the gunk without evaporating too fast, and the alcohol dissolves the oil-gunk mixture so that it can be pulled into a paper towel, then evaporate quickly. These liquids are unlikely to dissolve much salt and end up depositing the salt on electronics. I then used a vacuum cleaner to pull out any remaining fibers.
A video showing disassembly of a similar mouse wheel - this is what I wanted to avoid.
