RE: Stylus Gunk

When I was in the business in the 80's, I would check the stylus of customers cartridges daily under the microscope. Many were horribly gunned up. Everyone that did this for a living (that I knew) used Audio Technica Stylus cleaner. One trust would make the needle sparkling clean under a powerful stereopticon microscope. I still have a bottle and I use it, but only occasionally. IMO it is too strong for daily use. For that I use Sylast cleaner and lube. Unfortunately I can't speak for the new AT Stylus Cleaner. I use the old stuff, and I think it has chemical that you are not allowed to use anymore.
