How often, and how, do you clean your stylus?


I used to brush the stylus before each side played but now I think that is excessive, so I check it with a jewelers loupe.  I also rotate between the brush and sometimes use Blue Tack instead of the brush.

My own microscope reveals tiny white flakes , more on cantilever than on stylus, left behind by ME. It was easy to remove with a brush.

Good old discwasher stylus brush as needed. Gently wipe a bit of Mofi stylus on the brush with a brush that comes with the solution. Probably end of doing it once or twice a month. After brushing the brush with fluid it is absorbed so as not to be visible. Don't want any excess fluid on the stylus. It's metal remember?

I buy a new stylus every week. New ones are usually come clean. If only I had known there was a way to clean them?

Dear @tigerdog  : Coming from Joseph Long ( he is my cartridges prefered re-tipper. ) I will use rigth away that melamine foam and will forget all what I have and used for years.

 

Thank's for your post. Great !
