Best type of stylus cleaner??


Hi. I've recently delved back into vinyl after many years. I have an Ortofon Samba MC cartridge. Maybe its an indictment of our housekeeping, but the needle seems to accumulate a lot of dust & tiny hairs or fibers, even after one or two records. I try to clean it after each play, but some of the dust/hairs are difficult to remove. I don't have the best record cleaner (SpinClean), but the dust seems excessive. Ortofon warns of using liquid cleaners; is there a consensus stylus cleaner or brush out there?? Is my problem unusual? Thanks.

Jerico,
Now get the Magic Eraser and be really amazed. Follow it up with the Zerodust.
I use the Magic Eraser followed by the Zerodust. No fluid to coat things. The combo is very effective.
CHuck,
There is no liquid involved. It's basically a dry sponge-like abrasive pad with ultra fine fibers. Check the thread archives.
