Record Rescue has saved my stylus


I live in a 115 yo house and it is very dusty.  This has wreaked havoc on my vinyl listening experience.  I had issues with dust buildup on the stylus that was very difficult to remove via a brush or my onzow zerodust.  I have a Rega and was using the original felt mat.  I went to a cork/rubber mat and this helped reduce static on the platter.  I got one of the Milty 3 zerostat, but that thing is so frustrating I tucked it away.  The trigger is so inconsistent in how it reacts and clicks or not.  I also picked up a record rescue on Amazon.  It is a mini version of those old lint rollers that are reusable.  Now I roll that across every record before I place it on the platter.  On a long day of listening I rinse it off a few times.  It does a fantastic job of removing debris from the record.  I have not noticed any issue of it leaving a residue behind.  It will make streak marks if you apply much pressure.  If it is clean you really only let it rest and roll it across.  I was curious how this was working for others.
