Check whether you can increase the Lift-Off Distance (LOD) in the mouse's configuration. I have a good quality mouse pad, but that specific material, combined with the specific sensor in my mouse meant that having an LOD setting of 1 (it's a scale value from one to 5) would make the mouse work fine, except for intermittent stuttering that made me think there was dust on the sensor. Disclaimer: I had to download the mouse's Win-only utility to change this setting.
