My A button was requiring a harder press for the input to be registered than normal, so I opened up my GBC and noticed this transfer on the PCB. I guess years as a child hard holding A to improve pokemon catch rates had caught up. What's the best way to remove this? Isopropyl alcohol and cotton bud?

Alcohol is so hydroscopic that your 99% will be 91% pretty quickly after opening. 91% is fine, even 70% will do, it just takes a bit longer to evaporate.

The “impurity” is straight up water.
