And gum up your discs and stylus.
@jakesnak, stay tuned. An in depth report on the subject is coming.
Use anti static sleeves. Throw all the paper ones away. MoFi sells great sleeves. You have to short the record to ground. There are several ways to do this. I use a grounded sweep arm. You can get a record brush with conductive bristles. drill and tap a hole in the metal and wire the brush to ground. Just holding it is not good enough. Use it before and after you play the record. Never put a static loaded dirty record away. You contaminate the sleeve and perpetuate the problem.
