I have seen silicone tipped tools but I have not tried one.
I have read about a person who uses a paper clip. He got a dab on the end of the paper clip and then heated the paper clip slightly above the dab and it dripped off the paper clip. I tried this and it worked. Albeit, kind of a pain in the ass.
I use a stainless flat tool and just wipe it on the edge of the quartz when I put the dab in the cup. It drips down after the cup gets hot. Not a great method but it works for me. Plus, the dab dripping down the side of the quartz cup slows the burn a little so it actually dabs pretty nice.
I use silicone containers and have no problem but I have read that silicone is not great for long term storage.
As for collecting it off the parchment, I use a glass swizzle stick. Usually works fine unless the rosin is extra runny. Then, I just press the parchment onto glass and pull the parchment off quickly. It leaves all the rosin on the glass and I scrape it with a razor blade.
Peace
