Paint on cylinder record. Remember that the stylis is made of a hard material! 
If you run the cylinder through, the stylis is considerably harder than any 
paint ever made.There shouldn't be any possibility that the paint would damage 
the stylis.
  I would run it and then clean it with a tooth brusn and a small amount of 
isopropayl alcohl to remove any loose particles.The isopropyl alcohal will also 
clean the record.If used sparingly, It makes a great cleaner,and will remove 
oil and grease etc..
