do you clean the tip with say Clearaudio tip cleaner or Oznow? I would use air can to blow these off ...but please be careful! sometimes I had some black residue also on the body and the "ribber" seal which I got out with tiny painters brush...but again be careful as these things are very delicate...
Metal "whiskers" on cartridge body
I checked my stylus/cartridge yesterday, the stylus looked great. However, I noticed metal "whiskers" attached to the front of the cartridge body (an ESCCO modified Zu Denon 103R).
I have no idea where these came from, the cartridge is always stored in a clean wooden box, by itself, when not in use.
Is a there a safe way to remove them? They don't seem inclined to go anywhere, but I'd rather they not be there.
I welcome your thoughts.

Dan
