Agree. You can ask your dentist or hygieniest for a worn out scaler, which will still be plenty sharp for removing "Loctitus" from the tube pins. Deoxit with the cleaned tube as an agitator rocked around a bit finishes the task. Always bend the tube in the direction of the guide pin or "nipple" when removing , and you will be fine.
