4Precious fluid  Sep 22, 2007 By Samuel Chell
Ignore that other guy who tells you to clean your stylus with your finger. If you have a top-of-line Shure VR-series cartridge and bend or break the tiny elliptical stylus, you're not simply out a couple of hundred bucks for a replacement. Shure no longer makes the stylus, claiming the elements are in such short supply the cost would be prohibitive. Other manufacturers' phonograph cartridges can be purchased for $2000 and up, but the biggest part of the investment is in the stylus. Lesson: treat it with respect if not reverence. The Stanton fluid seems relatively effective at keeping the stylus free of build-up and debris and is actually a small fraction of the cost of some of the truly tony brands used by the connoisseurs. It's not on the level of some of the rarest single-malt Scotches; but if you're not too good to drink Johnny Walker Red or Dewar's White Label, this is your poison.

Amazing what collects on the stylus! STANTON does the job it was designed to do. I recommend it!

5The defacto solution as far as I can tell  Mar 09, 2011 By JJ Dyn O Mite! "25johnny25"
A dirty stylus IS a problem. In the days of records, most people probably never considered the issue. It didn't really matter. Nowadays, hobbyists like myself are RECORDING their beloved songs to digital for posterity. I use 24/96 for most of my recordings. If I'm going to be recording at such a sensitive setting, listening to the same digital file over and over forever, I want the cleanest signal possible. I GruvGlide the record, let it dry, then clean my stylus and let it dry. This is provides the cleanest, slickest mechanical environment for the needle riding along a groove. There are a lot of short run designer specialty fluids out there, but this is made by Stanton for the masses. In this case, mass production equals value.

Thank you. I know that stylus cleaning kits aren't that easy to come by.

2What? You can't use your finger to get rid of dust buildup on your cartridge?  Aug 20, 2007 By Paul Dembinski
I purchased this product recently, thinking that Stanton knew more than me when it came to cleaning one's stylus.

The directions borderline on hilarious. Basically, they tell you to use their .02 brush on your stylus when build up occurs. As an option, (note: an option!) you can sqeeze a drop of their magic fluid onto the .02 brush. The brush is "carefully engineered", while the fluid is "special....that's unsurpassed at removing waxy build up".

For my money it all seems to be one gigantic waste. If I owned the Sirius III turntable by Rockport Electronics at $75,000.00, I'd probably search the net up and down for something that's not BS like this. My turntable is a Stanton STR8-80 which I love! It plays everything except 16 R.P.M., a disc speed that in my 46 years I have yet to encounter.

My suggestion for budget concience audiophiles is gently use your finger to wipe off dust build up. It's probably sacrilege to yuppie audiophiles to do this, but I have yet to ruin a cartridge, and I have been using vinyl for 40+ years (that's right, since I was 6!).
