Re:NTLK Photo of dirty stylus tip..? Replacement tip?

I have tried very very fine sanding paper (2400 grit) and it is not
smooth enough. I believe that the surface has to be burnished, this give
is a hard glossy finish. If someone has an idea let me know because I
have toasted two now. BTW any replacement tips for the origonal stylus
around ?
