removal of old heater wire cement

[emidisc]

just received a new transco stylus and before I had chance to make a cut the heater wire broke!
whats the best method of removing the old cement and wire so that I can fit new??.........solvent?

try a ultra sonic cleaning machine (min 300 watts)- thats how we do it.
to re-glue wires, try to get some dentists cement. that stuff is insane!

cheers

I've always just pulled on the wire, the cement breaks off, then I use my fingernail for the rest. Never hurt the stylus the few times I've done it.
