Milty Zerostat 3 Anti-Static Gun, Plastic, Blue

Product Information

I did receive an album in the mail yesterday that looked fairly dusty but otherwise alright. So I put it on my lazy susan record cleaner and used a dry velvet pad to clean each side, using my igniter after each cleaning. Then onto the turntable and a carbon fiber brushing of each side before play. And I'll be darned if I didn't get even a bit of static. In view of the wide range of uses of chemicals and apparatus, the customer will be solely responsible for determining the suitability and specification of products, services, information and advice for its purposes. The Milty Zerostat Gun is designed for removing dust from vinyl, turntables and other dust sensitive devices; it works by eliminating the electrostatic charge on for example the LP record thus making the record inert. Plus many additional uses where dust attraction is a problem Just curious, are these instructions you listed above from the manufacturer? I bought my Zerostat new and my box did not include any written manual instructions. Does it really require 4 squeezes/releases per record? Somehow I thought it just needs one squeeze/release and that's it. Also, I thought both squeeze and release should be aimed at the record at all times, no?

For vinyl collectors, statically charged records are a persistent thorn in the side. When a vinyl record becomes statically charged, it acts like a magnet for any dust lurking near its vicinity, making it near-impossible to keep the record clean. You may want to read this article by John Cameron, one of the pioneers of this technology: http://amasci.com/emotor/zerostat.html Zerostats do not work. The problem is that as soon as the stylus starts rubbing the groove static electricity is generated pulling dust towards the record. There are two ways to deal with this. The first is always use a dust cover. If your table does not have one there are companies that will make one for you. You can hinge it to your cabinet.Common misconception: we have 6 months of winter, one month of late winter, one month of early winter, and four months of summer. VWR takes care of sourcing, production, testing, and documentation of your chemicals. We manufacture what you need. The Milty Pro Zerostat 3 is effective at neutralizing static charges on virtually any surface without the need of sprays.

The Zerostat needs no batteries or electrical supply and unlike other antistatic products, the Zerostat contains no radioactive components whatsoever. I have an original red body Zerostat and it works as advertised to remove static from my vinyl. I zap each LP after cleaning before I put it in the MoFi sleeve and again just before I play any LP. Maybe overkill doing this before putting in antistatic sleeves but takes literally 10 seconds to do. Regular lighters will not work. A "kitchen piezo lighter" is used to light gas stoves, and is sold on this side of the Atlantic as a barbeque lighter. I usually keep a record cloth handy by the tt in a clean glass and before I put a lp on I dump a squirt or two of (mostly distilled water w/a little 99% alcohol in it) water onto the cloth and then I wad it up and shake it out so it is just overall moist.

Customer Accounts The Zerostat does not require batteries, and it’s good for approximately 50,000 squeezes. (That’s plenty to last a significant amount of time!) If you need to test the gun, simply attach the included ion indicator to the end of the pistol and squeeze the handle. If all is well, the attachment will glow red. There are many methods and products used to control static (far too many to cover fully in this article, but here are some basics).
