even with a x40 loupe, I can't see where exactly fluids are applied.

I think that the liquid stylus cleaner itself can be beneficial but the user errors are too high. This is probably why some cartridge manufacturers do not recommend it.

A friend told me the diamond inside his Dyna 17D fell off from overuse of stylus cleaner. Apparently, the stylus was unglued from applying it on a wrong spot.

A dry method ( either with the AT/Signet vibrating stylus cleaner without liquids ) or Linn's Green paper work just as fine )

I had a detached diamond from an Adcom Cross coil diagnosed as being the result of liquid stylus cleaner use, I'll only use liquid stylus cleaner now very sparingly and only before a microscopic exam.

The Zendust pad in concert with the Magic Eraser is ideal for any and all normal stylus cleaning, in the rare event of resistant burned on grunge the Green Sandpaper is superior to any liquid IMHO.

I've never used the vibrating / ultrasonic stylus cleaner gadget, to me (I'm the guy that thought Manual Dexterity was a Puerto Rican ;-)that's really scary aside from seemingly pointless.
