Cleaning a Palio cutter

I generally scrub mine down with mild soap and a toothbrush, and then clean the tracks with rubbing alcohol, and after its all dry, just a tiny bit of graphite powder on the tracks. Also, I've never seen any graphite make its way to my cigar.

Unless you are just dumping a bunch on the rails, I can't see how you would transfer it. It doesn't take much.

I put a speck on the tracks, not any on the blade.

Wouldn't want to engage in any risky behavior like putting unsafe stuff in my lungs for heaven's sake!!

Yeah, I would not risk smoking graphite powder. That thing is terribly bad for your lungs. I would suggest the Q-tip and rubbing alcohol.
