Can this help me take off the rust from the diamond stylus?

I honestly don't know if it will remove rust. It's designed to clean off lint & soft residue that it picks up from records. It's a product that has been available since the 1970's or 1980's and works well to keep your stylus clean. But I doubt it would remove rust.

Instead of cleaning my records, can I just let the stylus clean them and then clean my stylus?

No, this product just gets dirt off the needle. When I buy used records I wash them in slightly warm water with ivory dish soap. I let them dry in a dish strainer. Before I play a record and put some alcohol on a paper towel and wipe the record as the turntable starts turning. I've collected records for 45 years and these things have worked for me. Dust will get on the needle when records are played. Based on what old records are made of scrapings or oil from the grooves may come off. In the early 1960s RCA was putting some type of oil in the grooves. Records older than that are sometimes made of something much different than record vinyl of recent decades.

Can I use this cleaner for my Nagaoka stylus?

I believe you can use this cleaner on any stylus. It does a great job. My Benz stylus and cartridge retail for $1,000.

Is this safe to use with the adhesives that bond the diamond stylus to the cantilever?

Two things: Via email, I asked Audio-Technica the direct question - is 607a ok to use with their "ART1000" cartridge? That's the cartridge that has the moving coils attached directly to the cantilever just above the stylus - they answered that it is not preferred and recommended their other product: the AT617a cleaner, which is not a liquid. 2nd: I still use and like the AT607a on another moving coil cartridge of standard design - I've had that same cartridge for close to 20 years, use it daily (can't believe the diamond is still good, but it is, maybe due to the AT607) and never experienced any problems using the original AT607 & the newer 607a formula with the diamond bond.

Excellent

I was using a home based cleaner for many years till now I thought I'll change it for a new cleaner and yes it does make a huge difference in keeping your stylus clean. It takes out a lot of Dirt and gunk from the cantilever which the home solution could not without damaging the stylus at times and it does make the sound better with a clean stylus I definitely recommend this product to anyone using vinyl. I know it is expensive but just get it. It is worth every rupee.
