Hey, I recently bought a new needle for my turntable from TurntableNeedles.com. Its a real good one and has the dust brush on it. Well, I never had a dust brush cart like this before. so the question is, after playing a record, whats the best way to clean it? So far Ive been doing it like this: I use my index finger and thumb and pull the dust ball off. Should I be doing it a better way?

Guys, I also remember Stanton made cartridges with dust brushes.
I would clean the brush with a brush used to clean the stylus. I suppose your method is fine so long as your hands are clean and oil free.
Find them and destroy them!

Over the months Ive learned that combing it with the corner of a piece of firm paper works best.
