Stylus cleaners


I used to use Onzo ZeroDust with my first few cartridges years ago. With the last two cartridges, Hana ML, I have only been using the included Hana brush for every side of LP and the MoFi LP-9 liquid stylus cleaner (I get as much fluid out of the brush by pressing it against the neck of the bottle before I clean stylus) every 3-4 records. 
Onzo is collecting dust especially since the Fremer’s The Tracking Angle article. 
 

I’ve been looking at DS Audio ST-50 but at $80 I’m not sure it will do anything better than my current cleaning methods. 
 

What’s your stylus cleaning routine?

@tomic601 when I used Onzo I washed it as well. They’re similar but DS Audio has better ergonomics with it being almost as thin as LP. But man I’ having a hard time with $80 for a gel pad. Lol

Understand… I blanched when I got first one at $50 .  TMR has them so redeem points if you have some ?….

 

Smell the stylus cleaner. MOFI has a high concentration of alcohol. This is not what you want. 
 

Dry brush for frequent use and distilled water for occasional cleaning is all you need.

Blue Tac ? Come on now…
