I am only guessing but you may be creating the static yourself..You could be pressing too hard with the brush..Its possible by pressing ( or scrubbing ) too hard to creat static..I found when dry brushing the trick is to use a very light touch..That might be why the wet cleaning isn't creating static..Try very ,very light touch and see if theres any change for the better..If that doesn't work pick up a $50 hand held Steamer ( Wallyworld ) ..Once you try that you'll never go back to scrubbing again....Good luck
Help Anti Static Brush creates MORE static
Help! I am using an audioquest anti static brush to dust of my records BUT when I use it, as the needle is dropping down a series of loud static pops occur, and in addition during playback loud static pops occur. Sometimes I get these static pops after brushing a record before the needles even touching the record.
btw - On the same records, when I wet clean (using vpi hw16.5) this DOES NOT OCCUR. What's going on here? I figured I would use the brush for recently cleaned records, but its completely unusable. any ideas /suggestions re static greatly appreciated
