The all conquering Zerostat


Since having purchased my one and only Zerostat over 30 years ago, I'm on my:

Third turntable

Third tonearm

Sixth cartridge

Sixth set of speakers

Sixth preamplifier

Sixth amplifier

Third tuner

Sixth CD player

along the way there has also been a tuner/preamp and two integrateds



128x128zavato
The original Zerostat was sold by Discwasher and was part of a kit which included the Discwasher brush, D3 fluid, and stylus brush. They were also sold separately in red and early models were white.

The modern era Zerostat is made by Milty (blue) and was selling for $90US, but is now on Amazon for $70.
My old red Zerostat was becoming ineffective, so I found a seller on Ebay who had a case of NOS Discwashers. I bought a brand new red Zerostat for $50 (the Milty was $90) and it works very well when you follow the directions. Although, after playing one side of a record a static charge does build up on the vinyl.
On my second. Use it pretty much every day in the winter. It is effective, even on cd's. 
Back in 1980 or so, next door to Sound Components in Gainesville, was a Pizza Hut with a table top computer game. I forget whether it was Pac Man, Mrs Pac Man or the one with the aliens dropping from the sky (Space Invaders?). We discovered a great use for the ZeroStat. When fired at these game machines around town,  we were given thousands of dollars in free games, a great find for college boys.
