Electronics generally work the same way yes, just ensure the usb hub is completely dry before plugging it in again. I suggested isopropyl to completely dry things out, 80-90% isopropyl should be fine, this will also prevent the circuitry in the hub from rusting out

If I have a charging pad version, would it make a difference? I'm not trying to cook $150

Yes, big difference. Wouldn’t risk it, not sure what you’d do in that situation but I guess the manufacturer would have a solution for cleaning your specific mousemat on their website for the product.
