Should you use cleaner on your stylus?

Thommas is 99.44% correct.

A dry, white MCME can in fact release solvents, but only at temperatures above its flash point.

If your Magic Eraser bursts into flames during stylus cleaning you may be rubbing too hard, and residual solvents shouldn't be your first concern.

Thanks to Doug / Paul for the MCME system.

I am currently using the MCME on each side followed by a brushing front to back and then a dip into the Zerodust.
.
I find that the Zerodust takes off even more black junk when used as a follow up after using the MCME. The whole process takes almost no time (pretty much the time that my table takes to get up to speed).

Thanks Doug, for your explanation. Can you share where you found the info, (solvents only released at flash point), etc.?

Thanks in advance,
Jack

I'll have to check out Mr. Clean. Right now, silly putty on a coin (Canadian Loonie)is working well for me.

I use the Paul and Doug World Famous MCME stylus brush, followed by soft artist's brush and/or the Onzow ZeroDust. I insert and glue a small, flat plastic handle into the MCME, making it easier to use. I include one with every order of the AI stuff. If anyone needs a P&D WF MCME stylus brush, just write me and I'll send you a couple.

One word about the ZeroDust. I paid $69 for mine. I have found that Silly Putty works 99% the same ... or as Doug might put it, 99.44% the same. If you find the Silly Putty is a little too tacky (as in sticky ... not as in lacking style), put it in the refrigerator. That will harden it ever so slightly. The refrigerator won't do much for the style part.
