Flux Hi Fi stylus cleanrer

So I just got this cleaner after much humming and hoeing and of course the cost! I have been cleaning my carts for years with the Onzow gel, Magic Erasure, AT607 fluid - Blue Tack; I DO NOT want to get into that!
Anyway, I had to use it without the platter in place because of the height. It brought my stylus back to clear, new condition. How did I get along without this marvelous little gadget?
Cheers, Doug
