Bad Oozing on SV06 (files.catbox.moe)

The test prints in the image use the 0.2mm detail mode and 0.07mm ultradetail mode

I recently got a SV06, my first 3D printer, about a month and a half ago. About a week ago I started to find really bad oozing/ stringing on all of my prints, to the point that any functional prints are basically unusable. So far what I have tried is:

Cleaning the nozzle, inside and out, using a damp cloth and the metal needle tool that came with the printer.
Drying the filament. I had two rolls that I was using for the current print, so I used a DIY Dryer to dry both rolls, each on 70 degrees celcius for 4+ hours.

Neither of these have worked. What should I do next?

In addition to the other suggestions, you might try to dry the filament longer like 8-12 hours.

Thanks, I'll try that.
