If you could take a look at this I would sincerely appreciate it. I don't think there's any problem, but I want to post the links anyways.As for my cleaning procedure, I used the Nitty Gritty Cleaning Machine (manual model) with the Pure 2 fluid and the nylon bristle brush. I figured out that the reason I didn't get it clean the first time was that I just barely applied pressure with the brush. On the second cleaning I got those bristles down into the grooves and didn't worry because the record is old and scratchy anyways. With my more prized records and VG+ records I use a much more delicate approach, but of course in my experience most VG+ records don't have 40 years of dirt stuck in the grooves. I've noticed with 2nd hand records that how clean they are often times is related to how carefully they were handled and treated by previous owners...
Anyways, here's some links. You can see a little piece of lint or whatever to the left if you look closely. Then again, perhaps that's nothing to think twice about so long as the stylus itself is nice and clean. Two pictures of the same stylus.
