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?

Of course, M'shade claims it is better than the Zerostat. I haven't compared them myself. I do use the Iconolast as well as the much more expensive and different Walker Talisman.

Dealer disclosure.
I understand that the Talisman is not needed when you use the Mapleshade device. I have a Mapleshade, and it works better than the Zerostat I had..I'm satisfied.
I've actually found the Talisman does add an additional enhancement after using the Ionoclast. I got the Ionoclast first and since it's o inexpensive and easy to use I just use both.
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.
