Anyone See Downside to an Ionizer blowing on Turntable?

The problem I'm trying to solve is to rid any electrostatic charge build up in my records/LP's and the turntable.  I've looked at products designed to rid records of electrostatic charge.  In fact I own one.  However, I'm looking at getting a Simco Ion small fan and mounting it near my turntable and have it blow on the turntable when playing records.  Any harm in doing this?

dweller - I have a Zero Stat gun.  Good suggestion.  I'll try it.

erik_squires - point well taken.  Still might be worth trying

Mikelavigne - I'm assuming the "fan" is more like a very gentle breeze, but your point is well taken.  What is the name of your anti-static ionizer?  I have a $20K turntable - not cheap to me.
