Question 1

Does anyone know what the stuff on the ends is? Silicone?

Accepted Answer

I'm not sure what they call it but the lint rollers that pick up lint and dust that has a tacky rubbery surface that once it's fill you need to run it under a water faucet to wash the stuff off the cylinder and it's similar to that. No it's not a true wax like wax pens or if you attempted to run it over a fine nail sand paper item as told to rekindle the tack would destroy the tip right away. I recommend running in water first and using adhesive tape like scotch tape roll the tip or tips around and over the adhesive to pull off the dust and debris. I know a lot of people say or think it's wax but it's not. Maybe there's some element of wax in part of the formulation of the tips but I don't believe there is. My Inky Fingers on Youtube uses this as a monitor stylus on a Scan and Cut brother machine. NO one would actually want to leave a waxy smudge on their screens so even though the lady mumbles it's wax it is not.

Question 2

How do i make it sticky again

Accepted Answer

Per the instructions on the package, use some tape to pull off lint and/or fibers to make it tacky again.  Great tool, loving mine!

Question 3

Won’t pick up anymore. What do I need to do

Accepted Answer

Rinse the tips of the jewelry picker and it should start to pick again. Sometimes glue and dirt can dull the ends. Hope this helps.
