I use the Magic Eraser for detailed cleaning but for light duty work I bought a good Artist paint brush a Flat tipped one made from white nylon. I using a needle nose pliers carefully bent the brush tube up so that the brush curves upward allowing me to sweep from back to front while keeping the handle easy in my hand and flat to the turntable's top surface.
Needles are for piercing. For tracing use a stylus. ;-)

Magic Eraser + dry brush after every side.
Use great care when doing this.If you accidentally bend the stylus and cantilever sideways,you could easily bend it,or do other damage.
LAST stylus cleaner evary 5 or so sides. Sometimes with the soft brush in the bottle, and sometimes with the coarse brush for a good scraping of goo off the stylus.
