Lost stylus seeking similar experience

Depends on what solvent is in LAST. Epoxy is pretty impervious to most.

that's it, I sent AT an email, sent it in, they sold me a new AT33PTG/II for $235. A bit less that half price at the time.

I did some research on the stylast website. They really provide no information that would help to identify the solvent or cleaning agent that is in their preparation. However, they do say that stylast will last for decades, and is just as useful after long-term storage as it is upon receipt. If this is true, that eliminates the content of any volatile solvent in stylast. All the solvents that I know of that might eat into epoxy after it is cured are acetone based and are therefore volatile. Alcohol will not touch cured epoxy. So I think there is some sort of lubricant in stylast at a very dilute level, and it has no potential to eat epoxy. Possibly when a stylus is lost after using stylast, it is simply due to the trauma of the Brush passing over the stylus. 

Thanks lewm.  There is no solvent in Stylast.  According to their website the way Stylast works is that it vaporizes as the stylus rides in the record grooves and this vapor creates a cushion or barrier that reduces friction.  I have been using it for decades, but I am but one person.  The stuff has been on the market and used by a whole host of people for a very long time.  If there was any story associated with it attacking the adhesives holding stylus to cantilever it would be available.  There is no story for Stylast.  For liquid cleaners yes there is a story.
