I'm somewhat surprised that too much D4 would cause a stylus to separate from
its cantilever by dissolving the adhesive.  I'd be more inclined to think that
mechanical forces resulting from the stylus getting ensnared in the "goo" on
the record were more liable.  I think both Discwasher and Audio-Technica would
be interested in this one.  Of course the lesson is clear, not only should you
use a proper record cleaning fluid like D4, but it should be used sparingly.
I'd be somewhat concerned about the Nagaoka record cleaner or any other product
that uses a sticky compound since how much of said compound is left behind on
the record groove after cleaning??
