Stylast compatibility ZYX cartridges


I understand liquid lubricants and cleaners are not recommended for ZYX cartridges because their hollow cantilever will wick fluid up by capillary action. Is this correct? I have noted a clear benefit in reduction of surface noise from Stylast with my other cartridges.

Is there an acceptable way to enjoy the lubricant benefit of Stylast with ZYX?

Is there a different product I could use with this cartridge to achieve the same benefits?

Finally, is Stylast incompatible with other brands of phono cartridges?

Thanks.

Thanks, everyone. I get it. Stick with the zerodust for ZYX, which I also have and use.

One last question. Are there lubricants applied directly to the record that will not leave "groove grunge" or is record contamination inherent in any directly applied agent?
