Zerostat? Any Other Good Options?


This ever happen to you? I was using a micro-cloth to get some visible dust of some records only to find that the static in the vinyl was so bad that dust, dog hair, etc, was literally floating up and sticking to the underside of the record while I was dusting the top. Might be time to address the static thing. Especially with it being winter and extraordinarily dry in the house.

I'm familiar with the zerostat gun, and folks seem to like them, but I also think for what you are getting they are very pricey. Does anyone have any other static solutions that they like and/or does anyone have any thoughts on the zerostat gun?

Permostat works great and you wont need to jump through hoops every time you play a record. My personal experience with mapleshade is that their claims are grossly exagerated.
Best anti-static tweak ever - a small, shallow dish of hot water on your turntable base. Never hear a static pop/click again (and its free and carefree)!
Does anyone have any experience with different levels of humidity and the amount of static as a result of the varying amounts of humidity?
Piedpiper - I "googled" Permostat...appears to be a liquid/spray type vinyl treatment to eliminate static.
