RE: Stylus Gunk

With Magic Eraser, and this suggestion below posted by Bcowen, you should be able to clean it up with a little patience and diligent effort. In the future using Magic Eraser after each listening sesssion will keep your stylus pristine.

BCowen - I would recommend a good stylus brush and some quality liquid stylus cleaner (Record Research Labs, Last cleaner, etc). I always apply the liquid to the stylus brush rather than the stylus itself -- get the brush good and saturated with the cleaner and then pull it gently along the stylus. This way you don't have to worry about the liquid migrating up the cantilever and getting into the coils. If the crud you have is baked on it may take some time and patience, but I've cleaned up some incredibly cruddy stylii for friends using this method.
