Lyra SPT and poor eyesight

I hate their microscopic brush. So, I just use LAST stylus cleaner and a generic dry brush (that came with my Delos!) after every side. I've been doing this for a year without any problems.

Knowing how robust Jonathan's cantilever assemblies are, I'm certain that this smaller brush was issued to help by doing a bit of scrubbing of the cantilever.

I'll bet that Dre_J (a long-time Lyra user) or Jonathan himself can clarify.

One thing is certain - using a longer, more flexible brush can do no harm. It might not clean as well however.

Of course, if you really feel aggressive, then the Mr. Clean Magic Eraser is for you, but based on your stated concerns, I don't think this is the case.

There's always reading glasses ...

I've decided agains Magic Eraser for this cartridge. My Helikon didn't last as long as I would have liked it to and I was pretty religious about using the ME with it. Not saying there's any connection at all, just trying a different route this time... sticking with Jonathan's method completely. I guess I'll just get those magnifying glass that you wear like glasses that I see jewelers and electronics builders wearing.
